We finally dyed!

This was my Gen2 sub-compact in od. My granddaughter has the GX2, which was in that pale lavender frame.

Last night I heated about 3 quarts of water to about 180° and I added exactly 1/2 bottle of chocolate brown Rit dye. I scrubbed my frame with dish soap and a brush and threw it into my brew. It took about 8 minutes and I rinsed it and it was still hot enough to air dry quick. I didn't strip anything.

My granddaughter has the lavender GX2. She never really liked the color, but it was cheap. She repeated my process with Rit Super Pink. Hers took about 20 minutes.
