Here is the finished product.  Apparently the DX plastic does not dye well.  I think that it is because they have a waxy cover.  At least that is what they feel like.

So, I cheated and Sharpied the disc.

My wife wanted a horse on a disc.

I got a DX ArchAngel

Acetoned the disc

Used a tribal design for a horse.

Applied my dye with my brush...........

The end results..............................

Failed. 

The dye did not take to the disc.

I tried three times, it just did not hold.

So the Ching putter I had and I guess DX plastics do not dye.

O.K. lesson learned.

I took my dependable Buzz Used the Design of.......

 Acetoned the disc............

After dyeing the disc,

I officially made it my "Work Horse".

Once again job is light versus dark.  Maybe brushing the liquid dye is the wrong direction.

Credit goes to the Daytona Disc Drivers.  I can not recall who I heard it from, but someone had mentioned "Harry Putter".  So I decided to make a putter named so.

Wow.  I hate to say this but I just saw a group called "We're Dyeing Here!"

It is a place to show off your works.  Find info about types of dyes, dye mixtures, etc............

After looking at that page, I really do not think that this page I created will last or do well.

But I am gonna keep it, and it will be my place to show off my works, and to get support from the group's members.  Thank you (Ye Few) for joining.  And I really mean that.  No sarcasism given.

It's not sa dark as I originally wanted.  Maybe I'll go to the stove top method.

I had planned to leave the dye on all night.  But when I saw it a couple of hours later (I left the disc outside but under some cover), I saw that the liquid had dried up.  And when it dried up, it looked like it had star crystals.  I washed the disc off and that is what came as a result.  So the answer until it crystalized (2 or so hours).

      I want to try different colors as well.
