It's called Rit, you can get it at Wal-Mart, some Targets and all Michaels Craft stores. It's cheapest at Wal-Mart and is usually with the laundry stuff.

I get the powder stuff, once you mix it you can re-use it. I store it in a couple rubbermaid containers. I know some people use cool whip containers, glass jars, whatever.

ya i have done some discs with RIT but it just doesnt get dark enough. I have been experimenting with alot of different dye's and methods. I have tryed boiling it and also using it with alcohol or acetone. heat is definatley the trick. The thing about RIT is that it is only like 10% DYE and the rest are fillers. i have experimented with other brands and have gotten some real dark blacks. but im still trying to find the best recipe.

I have had no problem with getting a real dark black from RIT, I mix a full package of the powder with about 3-4 cups of water, make it about 125 degrees, where I can still touch the sides of the pan, keep it in the dip for about 10 mins and it's super dark.

All depends on the plastic you dye, Champ & Star have worked the best, I also did Elite Z and Cryztal and those came out super dark too. Gonna try Pro this weekend and see how it does.
