    That is awesome.

    Looks like a lot of hassle though to make it happen.

    Good job. Maybe I should dye my Eggo black to match my X!

          hey has anyone tried this by dying black then letting it dry then dying it again sometimes that works seeing how the dye will coat over the old just as if you were dying from one color to the next just a thought anyhow thats great now if only they made a blue to black fade pipe!!!

              Wouldn't that kind of hurt the shell if the glue was hot enough? I'd think it would make a 'dent' or groove in the shell from the heat, which could cause shell breaking problems later. Just a thought, just a thought.

                I highly doubt hot glue will damage the shell. I'm not sure how the glue will hold up when you dunk it in the heated dye, although I don't know how hot you have to get it.

                It's a neat idea to use the glue if you wanted to do some wacky pattern on the side of your hopper. I don't know what else you would use

                    I like. That's extremely cool - a fade hopper that matches your marker. Excellent job.

                    That should turn some heads.

                        first post woot

                        well i couldnt see the pix

                        im planning on doing a solid black to light-smoke or clear then take the new fusion spray paint that chemically bonds to plastic and put grey flames on it. just wondering how many packets of dye and how long this mif=ght take. im gonna experiment on some pods first but i heard that the better grade plastic of the halo takes forever.

                        thanx for the help
