It'll take longer, but you'll be able to control where the dye goes a lot easier... Then, when you're brushing it in, just make sure you stay out of those spots that you don't want colored. Hope that helps some!!!  Post a Response

Re: dying Posted by ohio on April 11, 2008, 10:40 am, in reply to "Re: dying" 74.219.149.67 agree. cake a bunch of vaseline on the white parts and it will shed the dye and rinse water, then you have to use oil to get the vaseline out afterward  Post a Response
