Harold Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 Here's something I adapted from an old issue of Car Modeler- using RIT dye for coloring clear plastic. Several years ago, I bought a roll of white wire wrapping at Radio Shack. Find the RIT dye of your choice (wide color range) and grab an old saucepan that has outlived it's usefulness as a cooking utensil (you don't want to cook behind this stuff) and a small strainer. Mix a small amount according to the directions and bring it to a rolling boil for fivr minutes. Cut aff a section of wire (I've done as much as 3' at once) and place it in the strainer. Submerge in your dye mixture for about a minute. Repeat this process until you get the shade you desire. Good luck.
