WinterBear Report post Posted January 21, 2013 A couple of users have said they liked Angelus dyes, and got pure deep colors from them. Angelus makes both a paint and a dye, but I think you'd want the dye for a dog collar as it has better penetration. http://turtlefeathers.net/text/angelus/dye.html They've suggested diluting the Angelus and applying the dilute dye in several coats until the desired shade is reached. I have also managed to make a shocking magenta by mistake with Feibing's red dye that I had diluted with alcohol. I finally figured out that I managed to pick up a bare touch of blue into the diluted red and it turned the veg tan that color the following day. It was a brilliant red the day I applied the dye and it dried, and magenta the next. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TomG Report post Posted January 28, 2013 Agreed... Dilute red with alcohol,,,,,,, LOTS of alcohol... Start at 50 parts alcohol to 1 part red spirit dye. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
