CAN YOU SUCCESSFULLY DYE GORE TEX?

CAN YOU SUCCESSFULLY DYE GORE TEX?

[@joshua4098]

Cool! FYI…RITS website has a COMPLETE pallet of colors and shades with the RIT dye combination ingredients. You don’t have to just do Peacock Green. Example: I was going for OD green and had to use red and graphite 👍🏿

[@garydaddario6377]

I did my ACU goretex set with iDye Poly in Kelly green with great success and no ill effects.

I'm glad to see that the DWR didn't get in the way. good stuff!

I'm surprised Birdie wasn't playing in the sprinkler with you marine..!! Semper-fi sir

[@Stoney_AKA_James]

Great idea

Revisiting. I just received an order of MOLLE II rucks - full, medium and assault all in your fav UCP camo. I really liked that Rit Dye Synthetic 'Peacock Green' color you used so I thought I might try dippin' the packs in a bucket. I'll let you know - it'll be a while.

I stand to your experience and dye in this regard. Looking for your report after a hard rain.

I usually add about a cup of white vinegar and half cup of salt. It is supposed to help, the salt for normal fabrics, vinegar for the cordura type fabrics.

Love the color. Looks like it took really well. Hope it proves to be water repellent still.

Well the 2nd video that gave me an answer to my question, I just bought a UCP bivy cover, to complete my sleep system, but both my jungle/patrol, and intermediate bags are OD in color, so i wondered if waterproof fabric could be dyed without damgthe item, 👍🏾👊🏾💯, thanks for the video, want to get it close to OD as possible.

I actually like the Air force pattern 'as is' - works in Southwestern desert. Better patterns/colors exist but I prefer mil-surp stuff.

[@shadowfoxcorp]

I like it.

At 81now I have collected about 11 items over the years all at discount stores and 2 brand new items like yours all are still water proof a few have to be 20 years old . Almost for got We also bought 12 pair of gortex winter pants . These were being spold at a local surf&ski shop at a once in a year sell of and swap.. Any way a former or current sales person for gore Tex was selling about 20 pair of thee pants for 18 bucks if memory serves me , so we bought some in the sizes our freinds could wear . The only draw back is the pants had Gore Tex printed on 1 leg . I did read years ago about gore Tex it was the weave they had the patent on thats all I can remember what ever the secretwas I'm sure all the ansewrs are out there . Happy Trails

"Whore's bath" 🤣 Thanks for testing this, will be interested to see how it does longer term. If it works , it will be a great way to get inexpensive Gore-Tex that doesn't look like a bad couch cover.

[@billsmith5166]

Just wonderin, did any dye come off on your arms or neck when you wore it? Thanks for the video!

[@LeatherNeck-0331]

great experiment..looks pretty good for fla woods...stay frosty brother

[@chawnslopoke2619]

Where did you find it soo cheap? I bought all the same stuff including the rain suit. And i still paid alot! Lol thank you

[@moondog573]

is the goretex wet or dry when it goes in?

[@mbecker163]

I couldn't find an update video, did the gore-tex keep it's functionality? Thanks for the video!
