Dyeing bolts???..........

[Kirkysboy]

Could you dye aftermarket nylon/derlin bolts? I know with dying hopper shells you use hot water but it would probably make the derlin and nylon swell. Is their other dye that doesnt need to be used in water that would work? I was just woundering because it would be cool and make the bolt have a more custom look.

i dyed my impy delrin bolt no problem. just bung it in the hot water. the water only makes the bolt swell while its wet. when the bolt dries it shrinks again so no worries there. any clothes dye will do it. just remmber to keep turning the bolt to get even coverage
any more questions pm me and i´ll give you more details

Whats the point you dont usually see the bolt anyways?

 

[elrikos]

depends on your marker joe bob. if your using a tippman i agree. if your using something like an impulse(especially a milled down one like me) theres loads of point cos you see lots of it
