I have heard of people painting their plastics, but has anyone ever tried to dye their plastics before?

I used to do it on my RC cars years ago and thought I might give her a try.

Anyone have a rear fender size pot or pan I can use? :devil:

yeah, I was thinking about that and using a cheap heating element and suspending it in the water to heat it up.

I wonder how long it will hold up.........:rolleyes:

Added to the list of winter projects.....:macho

Well, as I was pondering over my fine turkey sandwich at lunch, I stumbled upon a possible problem to my winter project.....

How am I going to dispose of a kiddy pool full of RIT Dye? :eek2:
