MVP Eclipse help

[aldoski]

Does anyone know if the white outer rim of a MVP Eclipse disc will take dye? I'm hoping to easily make a "reverse stormtropper" type of disc... i.e. dye the disc black but keep the stamp and rim white.

Thanks in advance

Should take dye, so just make sure to mask it, and it should be all good.

it will dye for sure. be careful it soaks it up. that said awesome idea!!!!!

I would tape the rim up so it stays white

 

[MrGlass01]

why not do a bottom dye on this one? It will help to ensure that the rim does not get touched.

just a thought

that looks crazy. RIT? how long?

 

[aldoski]

Yep just good ol' black powder RIT. Bottom dye. Only about 40min but I think I'm gonna do it again to try to make it a little darker

That is sexy. No further comments because I'm kind of turned on and I'm afraid what else I'll say. Can't start sexting to your disc, now can I?

 

[MrGlass01]

Nice!!! That is a beaut!

What color was the disc to begin with?

 

[MrFixIt]

That looks awesome!

Wow that came out nice. I've done a few bottom dyes now and I think I prefer it for keeping a good looking stamp but giving the disc some pop.

 

[aldoski]

Thanks everyone! I'm really happy with how it turned out. It was blue to begin with.
Yea the bottom dye worked out well and I just soaked up the remaining dye with paper towels so I didn't have to risk getting it on the rim from pouring it out.

If I were you, I'd start crankin these out for the marketplace forum and MAKE SOME BANK BABY! MVP throwers would gobble these up like pac man.

I would call it an Imperial Gunner or Tie Fighter Pilot but that's just me.

How do you do bottom dyes?
Just put the dye inside of the disc and let it soak?
