how do ya dye ya mags

[Wadz]

i know the basics dye, salt,  hot water, but what do ya put it in, i used the bottom of a 250ltr  plastic barrel to bleach my mags,   i dont think this would be any good
to dye with as i need to keep the water at a constant heat, what have you lads used, and how long do you leave them in for.

Use the search function my friend...and the laws of the land will come forth and reveal themselves 
Or simply click on tech and restoration and click away

To do my Z rims I used a plastic bucket from whicks and used Snavs steam stripper method.

Basically boil up some water and then use a steam wall paper stripper with the plate taken off and put the hose in the water. The steam will keep the water boiling for ab out an hour and a half

so a  plastic bucket was ok with keeping the water  boiling with the steamer, just have a image of the bucket collapsing with the heat.

No it was fine, it was one of those 'rubble' plastic buckets with two large handles on each side....£7 in whicks 

The stripper was £19 from argos which worked really well and you've always got it for anything else, or to strip any wall paper
