(1/4) > >>

dordymush:
just got a nice set of z's off oldschooldayz  :daumenhoch:.
wanna dye em black though as there faded blue.
got a pack of black rit dye for em.
is it the same method as tuffs ?.
plus do you need to keep the water hot or is leaving em in for a few hours with just kettle boiled water enough.
never tried doing wheels before so wanted to check before ruining them  :crazy2:.

yup follow the tuff way - blue will go to black or back to blue  ;)

measure twice, cut once - read all threads on it for best results  ;)

dordymush:

fook it then.get em in the tub and hope for the best.
might give em a light sanding first to see if that helps it take.
