Hi guys

I have dyed lots of grips with 2 packets of rit powder and a bottle of rit dye before with awesome results.. Salt and simmer for 90 minutes...

I have some .5s that just won't turn black... Currently blue... Any ideas??? I've dyed them twice now and all they are are a slightly darker shade of blue...

I know they can be dyed as I've had some before that were dyed from blue to black perfectly....

Any help or ideas is appreciated...  :daumenhoch:

I wonder if they are already dyed what I mean is they were yellow or something and somebody dyed them blue don't know whether it would matter

Good point.... I would imagine if they had been dyed then it wouldn't work..... They didn't look like they had... They are a nice dark blue now anyway  :LolLolLolLol:

Dyed a seat orange once for some unknown reason.  Fooking thing won't accept any  other type of dye at all . Dyed before sounds a possibility Steve
