Just do a Google search.
you tube also....junglejimjigs think helped me out with this before...i was wanting to dye alot of deer tails. for bucktail stripper jigs
If I was you I would just get a get acid dye instead. Lot of colors and they work the best.
If you are dying just a little bit of fur,feathers,hair I'd try koolaid first. It's cheaper but process takes longer. One packet of the Cushing's Perfection Dyes will do a LB. dry weight of materials so a little goes a long way. White vinegar is the acid used to set the colors so they don't wash out. There was a thread awhile back complete with pics showing the process with the koolaid.
There is a link here.

I know guys who use cake frosting dyes, they claim they're the least expensive and do
a remarkable job. My friend and I dyed about 20 bucktails and were letting them sit and
soak, went back later and the rats thought those suckers were cake. It looked like the
movie Wilbur, must've been every rat for a mile. Bleach will whiten them up purdy though.
I did a few colors this weekend that came out good, but would like to see your recipes for some other colors, but the link on the original thread is out. Any chance for a re-up?Quote:
