How's your project P? Just asking as I need some help.
I've tried to clean my PP's but there's too much denim bleed on em. I have a fresh pair so now I can try to customize the old pair but do you guys know how to dye suede (or what ever that material is)?


RE: The Custom thread. - nikosg - 22-09-10

do a bit of research man. there are some equipment out there, bit expensive though. and obviously you cant dye into a ligher shade, so a tad limited i guess.

there are heaps of differnet results just google Smile i would think a airbrush would achieve a more even result on suede... but give it a go! this should be interesting, either way Very Happy

let us knkow the results!


RE: The Custom thread. - einzigartig adidas - 22-09-10

Yes, for real, definitely let us know what happens... I'm very eager to start learning more about customs myself.

I used Angelus suede dye.
Then rubbed the suede with a pair of rubber gloves on, they went over the lighter patches again and repeated until the colour was uniform.
