Does anyone know a good way to dye a golf disc?

Question

Any ideas will be helpful! thnx

Answer 1

If they are made of nylon, you can dye them with an acid dye. The easiest to find acid dye is mixed with another type of dye in the all-purpose dyes you will find at the grocery store or pharmacy. Better acid dyes can be purchased by mail order from companies such as PRO Chemical & Dye in the US or Kraftkolour in Australia.

Polyurethane can also be dyed with acid dyes. Some golf dics are made of polyurethane rather than nylon.

Acid dyes should be applied under mildly acid conditions, such as with vinegar, citric acid, or ammonium sulfate, diluted in water, at a temperature of at least 140°F.

Answer 3

i don't know how to dye discs, however i used a guy in wisconsin recently for a special order dye job.  his url is widye.com.  he charged only $25 for a champion wraith dyed with a heart (anatomical) and some text dyed on it.  the disc was for a friend of our's who recently had open heart surgery.  the disc was signed by a bunch of the regional players and given to him as a get well gift.  he absolutely loved it.

I do have a friend in central NY who recently started dying discs.  I imagine it's not too difficult.  I sent him an email seeking instruction.
