A couple of questions about dying..........

[bobafett]

....so I read Wax's seat dying guide a while back and i read it again recently, and although kashis, elinas and some others are mentioned, has anyone ever dyed a Viscount MX ?

.......also i've got a rather faded but very nice condition pair of red mongoose grips (must have been used somewhere sunny BITD  ) I was toying with the idea of chucking them in for a short while with the seat (if i can do it) but i'm worried they might get fooked up or turn into goo

If the seat is nylon it should be ok, the grips won't work though this has been tried out a few times - if the dye does take it tends to rub off easily

Why thank you kind sir 

I'll whip the seat off an see if it says nylon

sure i read on VBMX that some had now dyed some grips and it stayed on ok (show bike not rider)
not sure what they used though

will go have a nose

Mine are only a freshen up (same colour) so hopefully it'll go ok
