my newest dyes

[skinner21]

I dyed 4 disc last yesterday. the first is a super ugly Chicago White Sox logo (GO CUBS!) that I did for a friend on a Z Surge. It came out super clean and we my most succussful of the day.

The second is a bob-omb I did on a Champion Wraith. I made it a little too large and there is some bleeding underneath wear I got a little too close to the edge. Overall though I love it.

the third is Darth Vader on a DX Aviar. This was the only one I cut by hand (the others were from my new vinyl plotter). I didn't leave it in long enough and it is really light. My first with DX and I won't be using it again.

my final disc that I did was my first attempt and a 2 color dye, and while it is my favorite design, it was an unmitigated disaster. Bleeds everywhere, lines from where I made some rookie mistakes with the plotter. Oh well, it was only for me anyway. It is a Zig Zag rolling paper logo on a Star TeeBird.

I don't know. I'm having a hard time getting out there after work now that it's getting dark so early. If you give me some advance notice when you're out I can try and get out of work on time for once. My weekends are full for a while too. Just send me a pm and let me know when you going out.

Nice work!

about the Vader disc...
in my experience, DX, especially white DX, is very dye resistant, so it may not have been just not leaving it in long enough

I agree with SnowMongoose... Innova DX and Discraft X plastics are not very good for dyeing. The cheaper the plastic, the less absorbent it is to the dye, so make sure you're always working with high quality plastic (Champion, Star, Z, or ESP) if you want your dies to turn out right.

Vader will fade away in a couple weeks.
