Next spring I’m “coming into some money” (mortgage is paid off ;o).
So I’m lusting after a Notch Lithium.
I’d like to dye “My Precious” a nice shade of leprechaun green, forest green or avocado green. You get it- GREEN. Is this possible with Dyneema fabric? This is both for more shade and stealth camping. (No lectures, I’ve successfully stealth camped on the AT.)
http://www.ripstopbytheroll.com has figured out a way to offer cuben/dyneema in pretty much any color. Not sure how their omni color outdoorink technology actually works but might be worth checking out.
I believe we talked about dying non-natural fibers a bit ago here…my recommendation was to experiment with the new Rit Dye More product. You can dye anything, including Leggos (c) and plastic buttons with this stuff and it’s worked great for me with nylons and polys. If you do use this product double up on the strength and use a plastic tote and you don’t have to use boiling hot water, just leave it in overnight and stir often.
Isn’t the Notch Li already green? I’d call this close enough to a pale avocado green :)
