Help! RIT dye mess up -
09.03.2008, 09:26 AM
I tried to dye a set of intigy bead locks - read: EXPENSIVE - and the chrome did'nt dye. I only did two so far and I don't want to mess up the second set. Is there a way to bleach it out or use RIT dye remover/stripper to undo it or am I f'd. The dye is just flaking off the chrome area and it looks terrible.
Here's what I did...
-Got black RIT (bottle) added enough water to the dye to cover one wheel in a coffee can.
-heated up to 200 (just before boil) and removed from heat and dropped in a wheel.
-let it sit over night and removed the wheel.
-washed off the wheel and the dye flaked off the chrome.
My next option is to strip all wheels w/ acytone or something and re-dye w/ out the nice black chrome look. Any help or suggestions before I do this?
