It took hours for the red to saturate the legs of my Hard Master custom.<br /><br />http://insidiouscustoms.blogspot.com/2010/06/hard-master-from-gi-joe-custom-action.html<br /><br />You just have to be careful to keep checking on them as they can warp under the heat if you're not careful. Good luck!Eric LeFeberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12960672368155961714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8972751061889550471.post-9441354996940685252014-06-25T18:32:17.812-05:002014-06-25T18:32:17.812-05:00I am an experienced customizer, often post my thin...I am an experienced customizer, often post my things on Deviantart or Hisstank and a friend of mine recently turned me on to RIT dye, I normally use a dremel to get paint to stick to joints but RIT seemed easier. so I followed the instructions you put up on here, even used liquid black RIT dye to try to get the joints to go black on Retaliation Jinx(who is blinding yellow)so I could turn her into Vypra. Well about and hour and a half of soaking her in the RIT on medium heat nothing happened, just gave her a slight wash that's it, the joints weren't even tinted. am I doing something wrong or has RIT changed their formula?
