How to Dye Your Touch Pro Battery Cover

as soon as i dyed my cover black... my phone took the worst fall in history....lol.....off the balcony

did it get killed or did it somehow land softly on the grass in a turd of dog shit to save it from internal injuries and external at the same time.
 
Yeah, think I left it in a little too long. It turned out more purple than royal blue but it looks really good still. I definitely like it. i will try to post a pic tonight when I get off work.
 
Cool, picked up some royal blue, going to do this tonight

yup and the amount of the dye that you use as well as the time that you leave it in there will make a difference.... as well as the temperature of the water that you are using.... the warmer the water the faster that the dye starts to stick to the battery cover.
 
Here's my battery cover, hope the attachment works ;)

bout to say thats pretty blue to me lmao..... looks like it needs to be buffed... take a old rag or preferabbly a pair of jeans and just sit there and rub the case while watching tv for 10-15 minutes and that will uniform the color and keep it from fading as much over months and months of heavy use.
 
hey guys, i just died my cover today, turned out great i would post a pic but i just went with black so i felt it was no need. thanks yall it was super easy
 
This must be a stupid question because I didnt see anyone else ask this. But in the how to post, CHIEF says you dont cover the camera lense. Everyone seems to just drop the whole cover in the dye, Does the dye not stick to the plastic area where the camera lense is? I assume it only sticks to the rest of the cover. But just wanted to be extra sure before I dye my lense black and cant use my camera

the dye does not stick to the camera lens, that what i thought but i dyed it awhile back and had no troubles, wiped the lens w/paper towel and allowed to dry and worked like a charm...pictures are good.....


yup like tl said it doesnt matter.... i always put one on the front and back just for the mere fact i tape a paperclip all prebent so i can stir and pull out easily without getting dye on my fingers.
 
It says I cant add to rep twice in same post. Oh maybe the thumbs up counted. I was looking to click thanks to Dash and TL but i dont see the thanks buttons. I guess they are gone, im still used to the old site.

But more specific. Dash thanks for the Paper clip idea.
Heading to Walmart tomorrow. The Blue looks freakin sweet though. If i dye it black, is it possible to dye it blue after you already dyed it a dark color? Im guessing going from Blue to Black wouldnt be a problem though.

you can go from light to dark only and not the other way around.
