tell me what you all think.... the dark red/purple is wine rit liquid dye, than you have sunset orange at the end and royal blue for the blue version of it the brownish color one is tan mixed with a little red to give it some vibrance and it does truthfully look great. i would like to thank those you got me the covers when i broke mine. (also to those that sent the covers if you want a custom one done i can get you covered... just give me time to find some more covers and i got you with custom designs if wanted also
btw the orange doesnt show nearly as beautiful as it does in person..... the same goes for the others as all other people that have taken pics can vouch for.....

if ur goin black its super easy just get some RIT dye from walmart and put about half of it in a pot and let it boil, and then turn the heat down, i turned it down between a quarter heat to half heat and throw your cover in. There's no need for tape or anything on the camera lens as the dye is fabric dye and won't get on the plastic. Stir it occasionally for about 35 minutes and bam! you got yourself a black battery cover. I did it and it worked beautifully.

1) put water in pot and let it boil 2) when it starts boil add dye and turn heat down 3) leave for 30-35 minutes while stirring occasionally 4) what else lol are these right or did i skip a step? also do these work for all colors? |

ok broski this is what you do and everyone has a different way..... this is coming from a auto painters mind so i know colors a little more than most people...
1. take a solo sized cup (party cup) and fill that up with water just deep enough so the whole battery cover will be covered in water. 2. place in the microwave for 3 minutes 3. add more dye for the darker you want the color to be (more dye darker blue almost black) (less dye lighter blue) 4. once your amount is added that you want than stir to mix 5. drop the battery door into the cup and stir periodically every 2 minutes or so to make sure that the dye stays mixed with the water 6. periodically check to make sure you dont go to dark with the color and end up with black.... 7. ENJOY.| |
