Dying composite bodies?
Quick question. If I have an Ion body, can I use the rit dye method to dye it or is there a different method? Links will help
thanks in advance

is the body white? RIT along with other dyes will only dye lighter colors than the dye itself.

Try it. What is the worst that can happen? Ruin an ion body?
Make sure you boil the dye and water.

accually its an enmey body but I confirmed it was the same composite material and I also confirmed they do not sell the body seperatly as of yet
I just figured someone had experience with Ion bodies and it was easier then answering questions about the enmey body.

So find a used white and black ion body, buy it, then try it. Trial and error.
Have you asked the same question in the ion forum?
