Rit Dye Question!

[BladeChick777]

Okay... well I have this friend that bought an orange sprint run Dodo and dyed it black!
I have no idea why you would dye a knife that was a sprint run specifically for the color, black. Blue, purple, red, any colors are available, but he dyed it black because he didn't like how the orange showed dirt....

Anyways, the knife is now in my hands and I've been wondering... is there a way to remove the dye? I don't care if it comes out a darker orange or anything... but I want that black gone.

So is it possible? I've searched here and online and haven't found any information on it.

Thanks for your help.

I found this. Not sure if it would work on G10 or not... worth a shot?

Hahaha it's for clothes though. Maybe it could be made to work. Hmmm. Bleach maybe??? Ouf.

I think I'll try some of that stuff.

RIT dye remover will work on G10. I attempted to dye my grey Para-2 several times and that particular G10 just won't take hardly any coloring. I did get it to take a God-awful Sea-Foam green:

This guy is back to Grey, so I know it can be undone. Black however, is pretty dark, so I don't know what the results will be.

If nothing else works...try glass bead blasting them @ 60 psi...that WILL work...trust me (if this isn't possible for you for any reason, send me just the scales and I'll do it for you...I have done this with 2 other orange sprint run Spydies and they came out fine. I have pics of it if you want)

I actually like that color. Looks great to me.
