Dyeing my stock timmy bolt?

[QAZ123]

Aight you know my Ironmen timmy is blacker than black black but my bolt is white! I really don't want to dish out money on another bolt so I think I'm going to dye it! I've done it to my BKO bolt before I don't see why I shouldn't be able to do it to the Timmy bolt!

Any argument's over doing it?

Thanks,
JB.

never knew u could dye bolts. but if u can id say do it. also did it work well with ur bko? like did it fire good? id say do try it.,

[QAZ123]

Yeah it worked fine on the BKO and there was even a "How-to" on the ICD owner's message board. I'm pretty sure there the same material but just double checking before I do it!

Same stuff, you will be fine. You did a real good job on BKO bolt, so I wouldn't worry about the Timmy one.

JB, I'd be interested in that "How to" if you have a link.

[QAZ123]

I couldn't find the link on icd-owners.com for it shunut sorry. I searched on there but couldn't find it although I thought they had it stickied but it's been like two year's since I had my BKO though. But it's really easy to do.

Buy Rit dye in the color you want!
Strip delrin bolt down of o-ring's
Boil rit dye (watch out this stuff stain's everything keep old towel's nearby and use a pan that you plan on throwing away afterward's
Dip bolt in and let it dye. Keep pulling it out and rinsing it off till you have the color you want!
Repeat if necessary!
