Thank you for an awesome video! Blowing the black dye together was a totally new revelation for me. Gonna try that perhaps today. A lot of good tips on this video. I also liked that you mentioned not o drop any colour too near the black dye, to not overcome the black dye... How often do re-use the glue beds? Here in Finland it seems to be hard to come by huge bottles of (affordable) clear glue. I cringe at the thought of having to throw away the bed after one use.

I've been finding that a lot of my lighter colors (Caribbean, neon lemon zest, neon key lime, neon royal purple) hardly show up, if at all, even with a lot of dye put down. I was told heat would help but I haven't seen improved results with that either. I guess I just need some more dye powder in my mix! It's just weird because other dyes don't need nearly that much to look saturated.
@discdyeingdotcom2 жыл бұрын
Yes they will vary. However Caribbean, and royal purple do not work very well regardless. I get best results in floetrol bed with heat with those. But the lemon and lime should work, yeah try adding some more dyento your mix.
@shanesplanetshane3795 Жыл бұрын
the neons show up really well with heat mat and/or lamp. 6hrs with white premium plastics for me. Royal purple, neon cerise and lemon zest and carribean are a potent combo!
@benduimstra74372 жыл бұрын
Any chance you could disclose how you achieve the saturation you want in your dyes? Got my dyeing stuff today and after mixing up some acetone with plenty of Dye, my colors were much fainter than yours. Should I wait a few days to let it saturate more, add some heat to them, or get rid of them and try to add a small amount of hot water first before the acetone? Love the content and keep it up!

Can you explain the edge banding a bit more? Was the ink on the brush the same as the black you used to make the initial center line or was that some other ink?

Quick question. Have u ever had the problem of your acetone dye mix drying out? Can u reuse it? I have some dried out here and just filled one of them with acetone again. The mix did take on the original color just wondering if that also is going to be true on a disc. Thanks in advance.

Do you mix your dye with hot water first like the instructions say? I don’t and have been getting very poor saturation on lighter colors and neon colors. I have heard the hot water is important to activate the dye before mixing with acetone - don’t know if this is true. Thanks!
@discdyeingdotcom2 жыл бұрын
I have but I didn't see much difference to be honest. The lighter and neon colors can be tricky. You need plenty of dye and some of then really need heat
@shanesplanetshane3795 Жыл бұрын
prochem responded to me directly. The reason you use hot water is the additives they use for anti-static and anti-caking, ARE NOT solvent soluble. The dye itself doesnt care, but the additives don't break down in acetone across all colors. Hence the directions to use a tiny bit of water, mix, then add to acetone. Sometimes manufacturer instruction have a valid reason for them. Its science/chemistry... Heat mat at 90-100f and 6 hours does well for my premium plastics. Same with floetrol, tho you cant reuse the floetrol very well after about 24hrs on heat and 4 discs in same bed. Dont cover the discs, or condensation drops back into the trays and can cloud the edges.
