Hi,

Has anyone tried dyeing Schumacher 3 spoke wheels? If so any advice on how well it works and what brand dye to use. I want to dye a set of NIB wheels black for the carbon tub project car.

Cheers,

Ian

It works :-)
The Yokomo wheels dyed better than the Schumacher wheels, but they look like a different kind of plastic. Trying some glass fibre bits at the moment to see what happens.
