Rit Dye Multicam (Green Apple and Snow Pea), and Rit Dye MARPAT Desert (Snow Pea) DIY Tropical Camo

[@Ammotax]

As a fellow multicam tropical lover looks great I will be trying this out

[@christianwilson5956]

As a veteran i really don't care if your surplus uniform has names, patches, badges, or ranks.

[@GWOTalchem]

If you are clearly just training and not claiming shit no one will care. Keep crushing it kings 🫡

[@christianwilson5956]

@@GWOTalchem you can wear it for whatever you want. Just don't claim to a soldier.

UCP looks awesome after green rit dye. One of the better uses I've found for the pattern.

[@desertrat03]

The 2nd multicam one came out great

[@jimketchum3169]

M81 contender, IMO.

[@haydnadkins5007]

A friend of mine just dyed his multicam with a similar green and when we were airsofting in a forest I literally either couldn't see him or barely see him at times when he was still and I was only 10 feet away from him. We were on the same team so I knew where he was since we were moving together, but when we got down, it's like he just disappeared.

[@AnthonyMihelich]

Try RIT Taupe for UCP it works really well for a deserty camo. Makes the Khaki like Coyote and the Sage like OD Green. It takes the brightness out of the camo. Its a super light dye so you get what you get and for best results do two pounds of material per 1 bottle and follow bottle directions

[@Mike-pq8yu]

Big fan of that multicam green pea dye, might have to try it out on some kit! Tropic uniforms are pretty easy to find but I've found a lot of pouch/gear manufacturers only make stuff in MC or ranger green

[@Bakegaming101]

You’ve been so much help. Been looking for this exact video. I was wondering if you experimented with ocp pouches and had the same result. In the process of building a budget LBE in multicam tropic and having a hard time finding things such as a buttpack. If I could dye a multicam buttpack that would be awesome! Thanks in advance and great video.

[@raymond6164]

I did some OCP tops, pouches and a gortex bivy (turned out the best) they all turned out pretty well.

[@FLOPATT]

@@Bakegaming101 I’ll see what I can do. Though I just moved to a remote part of Alaska. And I can only go to the store once a month or two. So it’ll take some time sadly

[@d.i.m.eproductions6925]

@@Bakegaming101 just beware, dye, improper wash/dry cycles and detergent will ruin the VAT print and you will glow under IR/FLIR. Also cotton is the brightest material under IR/FLIR

[@StevenRoberts-m8v]

Thanks for sharing this with us!! I liked the way all of the camo turned out! Just caught this video&subbed! Thanks! 👍🎯🤝🫡

[@WOMPITUS]

I want to try this with M81 woodland and see if I can get it to look closer to lowland ERDL.

[@carbon4201]

MC is a bit bright for my conditions, so this is just what I was looking for. Thanks!

[@FLOPATT]

Awesome to hear! Always happy to help

[@2Swagg580]

Great video , Thank you for your service brother 🙏🏽

[@FLOPATT]

Thanks for your support, brother. Hope to get new videos out soon. But I’ve recently relocated to the Alaskan wilderness. So I’m only in town once every month or two to buy dyes

[@2Swagg580]

@@FLOPATT yessir , wow I couldn’t imagine life out there . God Bless bro 🙏🏽

[@nck4888]

Wow looks nice, sadly too green for my area, I got more browns being a desert mountain.

[@gatorhkman]

Well done. Thx for the color formula.

[@NaterTaterOutdoors]

Man, that’s looks sick! Love the tutorial for dying the uniforms. I’m partial to Multicam Tropic. I love the pattern for Deep South green overgrowth for hunting.

[@jkbaggett]

Great video. Multicam is pretty terrible in most Alabama woods, but tropic MC is perfect. This will make things much easier than finding tropic MC.

[@talljesuschrist]

How does Rit dye act when IR is flashed on it? I know some dyes have chemicals in them that stand out and glow when viewed with nods.

[@FLOPATT]

I’m not sure. Don’t have Nods anymore. But I can hit them with my thermal camera tomorrow night or this weekend and post it as an experiment

[@adrielburned6924]

​@@FLOPATTyes, I have a cheap camera with ir night vision. I use it to pick out clothes at stores or military stores. Army 9 yrs.

[@Feldmutze]

I tested it myself a while back and rit dye doesn't effect the NIR remission on a piece of gear whatsoever.

[@nck4888]

You probably already searched and found out but just in case make sure you don't wash your camies with dye "enhancers" or "brighteners"

[@d.i.m.eproductions6925]

@@talljesuschrist it ruins the VAT Print and it glows under IR/FLIR, your best bet is to get new in wrap UCP/OCP (some soldiers wash their shit at home and it ruins the VAT Print as well) and get it dirty in your environment and leave it dirty, or you could spend big dollars on ATACs 500D NIR with a VAT Print NIR and use a gentle wash/dry cycle with special detergent (dead down wind)

[@AlexanderEddy]

Great results, nice job!

[@Ben-Downlow.]

All the snow pee I've ever seen was yellow.

[@dangerousfreedom4965]

Please tell me what the star on the building means?

[@RKPTMcCoyBros]

Have you tried any brown? Very good video. One of the better ones I've searched and seen on KZbin

[@FLOPATT]

I haven’t yet. But I do have a set of ACUs left over I can try brown on

[@____________838]

The last time I tried to dye UCP with “dark brown” rit dye, it turned purple… I still don’t know what happened

[@Mrjackietreehorn]

I couldn’t live with myself if I left that Army tape on anything I was wearing… Thier multicam does look good though after you dyed it. Semper

[@orilion1820]

😂 I love the rivalry 😂 God bless you both 🇺🇸

[@FLOPATT]

I ended up taking it off because I couldn’t either 😂 But I just left the Sergeant rank because I earned it in the Corps. Just missing crossed rifles

[@garrett2209]

Fantastic video, super informative and you showed me everything I wanted to know, the comparisons at the end were perfect. Thank you for sharing! I personally like the snow pea a bit better

[@jefffefferson8339]

Does dying the fabric affect the IR defeating resin?

[@FLOPATT]

I’m not sure. I’ll check with my thermal camera this weekend when I post my other video

[@Anarcho-harambeism]

I do wonder what actual MC would look like, OCP is indeed different and

[@Grayman58]

How about trying the usmc from ww 2 pacific pattern the blotchy camo

[@FLOPATT]

I’ll keep that in mind for a future video for sure. I recently moved to a remote spot in Alaska. So I don’t get to go to the store for a month or two at a time

[@thesmirkingwolf]

Needs some more brown to darken the green

[@JyroOne]

Great if your in an evergreen forest. Good luck getting past inspection.

[@BearClawAK47]

If you run across any foreign commo, cheap. It would be cool to see that. Maybe contact shops like kommando store and see if they are interested in doing a collaboration video with you. Also, where those pink shoes Corp issued?😊

[@FLOPATT]

I’ll take a look at it. And of course they were lmao only for the Corpsman though

[@dswade59]

That green marpat look good

[@andy1147]

Just to confirm, at 3:51, that's the one that you dyed twice in the snow pea?

[@FLOPATT]

Yes sir. It’s best if you dye it twice to get the best results. Or use double yield

[@bobhatesrainbows]

I get the acus, but why hurt the multicam? Multicam is bestcam.

[@FLOPATT]

Personally, I also love multicam. It just sticks out too much in the woods in my state. Especially the pants. They almost glow. But with more green, it works perfectly (Also, we all know MARPAT Woodland is Bestcam 😎)

[@SolarGeneral]

lol no it’s not.

[@bobhatesrainbows]

@@FLOPATT yeah its a bit too beige for the woods. I like a good flecktarn for that myself. Your area looks pretty damn green though.

[@FLOPATT]

@@SolarGeneral no comparison camo to counter with means you’re lying

[@SolarGeneral]

@@FLOPATT it would serve no purpose to provide a counter argument because part of your identity is tied to it. Immediately saying I’m a liar shows that anything I say would just give you an opportunity to say “Nuh uh” and then resort to another Ad Hominem.

Do that with so chocolate chip desert camo

[@blkicemike4857]

It be alright while leaves are green,. Once leaves drop, u gonna stand out like a sore thumb,. Need some browns n grays imo ,.. looks cool though,..

I'd be scared if a 6 foot dude with an AR showed up dressed as the grinch so I guess it works 🤷‍♂️

[@frankcastle3827]

You should have left the usmc one alone

[@FLOPATT]

Why? The Taliban wearing it all over Afghanistan along with our gear is pretty sacrilegious to me. So I don’t mind messing with the camo anymore. I won’t touch my woodlands though. And I always have an extra set of both

@@Crusader1097 yes, that’s the only good thing about the ACU is that it makes more sense to get it dirty with your terrain and then leave it dirty. Dying, washing it with improper detergent and wash/dry cycle will ruin the VAT Print NIR coating as well
