A new style:

Tell me what you think! (I did not make these skates, I've found them on PHEW and written a tutorial on how to dye the skate.)

Materials:

Masking Tape

SEM Trim Dye (http://www.tptools.com/p/2208,233_SEM-Trim-Black-Paint.html)

Tutorial:

1. Tape off areas of the skate that you do not want dyed, remove skate laces.

2. Spray (carefully!), make sure that you aren't using too much (this stuff is used on cars).

3. Let dry

4. Compare to the photo, or use personal preference to determine how dark you want them.

5. If not dark enough, repeat.

Be careful! I'm not responsible for anything that goes wrong with the dyeing of the skate.

Yet people said tacks were to boring. Not a fan of these at all.

agreed. just too plain looking

True, but I'll take plain and boring over fugly graphics any day. I'd keep the white holders and probably rock yellow laces since I've been a yellow lace addict for as long as I can remember.

I hate silver skates with a passion. Did the same thing with my prostock 40's a while back using rust-oleum universal spray paint. I need to get some white tongues then these would be perfect.

Are these the same directions that were you used to achieve the look in the picture? I only ask because you say it's your tutorial. Have you used this method before?
