I guess I am gonna have to do this myself with some of my white ones. Need to tie up some hair jigs in pink and orange and all I have is a dark reddish orange.

Sorry about that Mike I should of read before I open my mouth you answer all my questions.

[mikeb]

Snake,I just glad that all questions are answered.
The longer you leave the tails in the koolaid water the darker they git,,to a point,then it dont matter.Also the directions read to use 2 pots.I just used 1 and drained the tails in the sink while the water heated up for the koolaid and vineger.

Can you change a darker color to a lighter color using Koolaid?

[One Trick Pony]

Hi Mike.

Thanks for this. Been doing the same for a few nows with polar bear hair and it is phenomenal the way it takes the colour.

My only problem ... I haven't been able to find a way to mix the koolaid to get a gray. Have you found a way or a blend of Koolaid to get it?

Cheers

Fudd, Like JJ said,,Lime will work on white buck tails.
