iDye poly green

[DarthMahling]

So I've used the iDye poly green(powder) added it into iDye poly yellow (allready dilluted) trying to lighten it. It still came out pretty dark. Has anyone combined the yellow and blue yet? If so what was your result?
Thanks.

Dyes never get lighter.

To lighten it, the proportion of yellow to green would have to be pretty high. Sometimes diluting the dye with double or more of the water will lighten it up, but do a test because the color may be funky. I haven't used the I-Dye yet, just going on experience with Rit and other types of dyes.

Make a 2:1 mixture with dye and water...should do the trick.

Dont add yellow to green to make it lighter, add green to yellow to make it darker. It will be easier to tune your color. May only take a couple drops of green to make yellow into light green...

This. Like in mixing paints, you add color to white, instead of white to color.
