Silas Tries Dyeing Discs | Plastic Addict 16
Join Silas from Plastic Addict as he tries dyeing discs in episode 16. He's excited to share his experience with viewers and show them how to transform plain white discs into unique and colorful pieces. Pro Kim has kindly provided Silas with their disc golf die kit, which includes a variety of colors such as dandelion yellow, fern green, bright blue, cherry red, action onyx black-gray, and pansy pink-purple. Silas will be using the glue bed technique, where he applies glue to the bottom of the discs before adding the dye. This method helps secure the dye in place and prevents it from moving around during the process. With step-by-step instructions provided by Pro Kim, Silas will guide viewers through each step of the way, sharing his results and tips for achieving professional-looking dyes at home.
