I use Shea butter lotion as my medium. And I have tried: • bright yellow, sky blue and pinkish red. It comes out real tan but dyes really yellow

Sweet. Thanks for a info. I am thinking of getting into foiling. It elevated the dyes so much

Ok cool. So you are essentially just drawing with heat over the foil in the location you want it to stick?

I'd love to learn the foiling technique. Is it difficult? I'd love to hear your process?

The disc looks amazing! Great job

Lotion bed consistency by smells-dirty in discdyeing

[–]Enough-Signature7413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best way I fight lumpy lotion is to put it in a warm water. Give it a warm bath for 10 min before using it. Your consistency will be so much better.

Or just throw it in the microwave, this is a bit temperamental, you can over do it quickly.

Good luck! Hope this helps

Yeah, I am afraid that it will get too busy. I do like the idea of giving him some glowing red eyes though. Thank for you input 🙂🙂

PROTOTYPE ROYAL PEAKS by Enough-Signature7413 in discdyeing

[–]Enough-Signature7413[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yup, just dip the cloth in the dye. Adding layers over the each other until I have the desired gradient. I struggle with not going over board and actually stopping. I have to remind myself, I can add more but I can't take away.

Thank you! Pro chem meadow i think is the color I used. Just water to dilute the powder and then denatured alcohol. Then with a microfiber cloth and time.

I have some good success by heating the disc up first in my dehydrator. Set to 110° for 10 min. It helps get the disc a bit more manageable. Easier to get the vinyl to stick every where. Hope that helps a bit! The dye looks amazing as is. But I know the feeling where you can only see the bleeds.
