How to Dye Action Figures - Tutorial
I thought I would do a tutorial on how to use Dye when customising action figures.
I often get asked if I use this method on Marvel Legends and Star Wars Black Series.
I do, but only on occasion and this is the method that I use when I do.
Hope it helps....

    Has anyone tried to use saran wrap with tape over it to block off areas you don't want dyed? I was thinking that could alleviate tape residue on the figure.

    Can you mix colors for this brand of dye? I want to dye a figure a nice dark brown, but they only make chocolate brown in synthetic. I haven’t tried the chocolate brown yet, but I’m taking a guess that it won’t be dark enough for my purposes.

    Do you think they would have been darker if you put them back in for another hour? Also can you store the dye solution once it is cooled and re-use it again?

    Do you think masking off areas would work to not let as much dye through in certain areas? I imagine there would be potential bleeding through but I'm thinking of a liquid mask as oppose to sticky tape.

    I'd do a test run on something you wouldn't mind it failing on first but that may very well work so long as the dye/water can't soak through

    Depends on the figure but generally yes, just to be safe. I tried dying a Gwen pool figure and several parts turned out to not dye at all or very little due to the paint. But it can also make and interesting effects, either way be better to remove paint for safety.
