The Dye A Day Thread!

^^^I see you learned the lesson on masking Ions. It'll bleed like crazy around the edge if it's not tight enough.

True that! Thought it was secure but it snuck in on me.

Did this one for a friend in the Rebel Disc Golf Club.

[weaktit]

thanks for the better pic. It's mind numbing.

 

[NorthernDisc]

Was weary about dyeing this Buzzz GT but it came out great.

 

[Dan Howard]

Nice NorthernDisc, the GT is a pain to work with! And Koogs I like the eagle, more and more I'm simplifying the dyes going in my bag. When you spray the fairway like I do they need to be easy to find!

question about a dye like this because i have a problem with the vinyl staying put- how do manage to weed something like this and keep those fine lines in place?

I'm still new to dying. I have only dyed roughly 10 discs. I used the painting method I saw on youtube for the orange disc and pan with heat method for the white disc. Pointers are welcome.

On the blue one when you dipped there was some air bubbles. Another short dip will usually get rid of those without changing the color too much. Good job dude.:thmbup:

 

[Dsplayname]

That typography is smooth. Maybe you can give some tips on cutting text like that.

 

[codyroberts18]

Thanks guys. I had trouble with a swivel blade for the xacto knife so I use a box cutter which gives me some good straight lines. Where is a good place to find powder of all colors? Wal Mart in my area usually only has black and some random color I don't use.

 

[Dan Howard]

I never have been able to get used to the swivel blades, they have a mind of their own! Craft supply stores are your best bet for dyes, JoAnns, Hobby Lobby and the like, smaller discount stores can have a treasure trove of old RIT, or direct from RIT online.

Jjadisc, nice work on both of those. The Blues Brothers Roc, the blue background really helps make that disc. And I like the leopard stencil, that disc should be in the cool dye combo's thread.

 

[Mattallica]

I try and find dye at places where people wouldn't go to find them....grocery stores are great for this.

 

[Mattallica]

Ditto

agreed
