Just wanted to say that if you have the money it’s really worth while to invest in a cheap blowtorch to get those bubbles out before adding the dye, you can also use it after you add the dye to the bed but you might need to add a couple drops more of dye afterwards. If you don’t have the money for one you can pull a lot of this bubble out using a toothpick, it takes a lot longer with the toothpick but still worthwhile if you want that really clean final result!
It looks great! I also think it woulda looked pretty sweet had you left it alone after the 2:08 mark. Just a thought my guy... gnarly dyes tho my bro... most gnarly dyes
I really love how this turned out! I'm starting to try this on my discs, about to get worm dip tomorrow, but if you have any dye brand recs, I'm all ears!
Oooh awesome! I’m using spike it worm dip. I haven’t tried quick coat yet but I’m sure its just as good www.ispikeit.com/product/150/dip-n-glo-unscented Also I’m using prochem dyes and idye poly as well. I love prochem dyes very much. U get a lot for your money and a handy jar to hold the powder dyes as well. It looks like they added 4-5 colors since this past December which is great to see too! I’m glad they are expanding their colors on their line. www.dickblick.com/products/jacquard-idye-for-polyesternylon/ prochemicalanddye.net/prosperse-disperse-dyes.html
Excellent video, that disc looks fantastic. I've done a handful of dyes using shaving cream, but decided to pick up some materials for a glue bed after seeing how cool these come out. A few questions I have for you: First, what do you use to make your swirls/pattern with the dye? I thought it looked like you were using some sort of compressed air hose, but later in the video in appears that it might have been a straw or something; could you use something like a toothpick to physically swirl the dye and achieve similar results? Lastly, what colors did you use for this one? I thought I saw yellow, orange, but unsure if that's black or just really concentrated dark blue. Great job and thanks for any info you can share!
Thank you! Colors: prochem bright yellow, bright red, black and I think flame scarlet. That along with idye brown, silver and gunmetal gray I think. I have used compressed air regulated down, but using your lungs with a scrap piece of 1/4”airline or a straw works plenty as good, just be mindful of condensation dripping onto the bed. You could use a toothpick, that is how pipedreamer79 mixes up his beds. They both create different styles, try both and see how you like it! I’m glad to help if you have more questions just ask away.
@@nowskidyes2740 Thank you for the reply! I think im going to give the glue bed a try. I have only tried shaving cream so far and have only had luck with star plastic.

Thats the hard part! Sometimes I feel like it would look great but dont know when to stop.
That is such a beautiful disc, I really need to try this technique. Love it
Do it!
Damn! Van Gogh! This is so beautiful.
You do some sick work with those glue beds man love to watch the magic happen
Thank you so much! That means a lot to me, I love making these.

These are great! Inspired me to try myself!
I love to hear that! Hit me up if you got any specific questions I can help you with!
Very cool! What do you do with the glue after you are done?
Normally I let it dry and toss it out. I started using 9” cake pans and I can get away with using a lot less glue.
When you use idye poly, how do you mix it? What inside the mixture ? I haven't figured that out yet.
Love how it turned out! How long do you need to let the disc sit in the glue bed? Is it 12-24 hrs like shaving cream or less?
I try for 24 hours but end up pulling at 20 hours give or take. For a champion plastic I here 48 hours works even better

@@Biggysmalls1289734 glue bed dyes are so much better then shaving cream IMO. Good luck!
@@nowskidyes2740 any problem with leaving them in for longer?
What are you using to blow the glue around?
Hello, what type of glue and dye do you use??? Love the effect it creates and would love to try it 👍🏼

What dye do you use
I’m using mainly prochemical and dye but I do use some idye poly as well.
@@nowskidyes2740 what is the ratio that you mix the dye to the acitone
@@seantillotson51 roughly one tablespoon to 4 oz acetone. I’d rather have too much dye and let it settle to the bottom before I use it.
@@nowskidyes2740 much appreciated
Kick ass
Thank you!
