In Response To: Material: RIT Dyes? (Rick Sylvia)

: Hello. Based on recent questions/answers, I went out at lunch today to get
: some RIT dye to mix in with some Durham's Water Putty. I had previously
: looked at my local paint stores and DIY centers, with no luck. I was
: instructed (per this Bulletin board) to go to an arts and crafts store,
: which I did.

: So, at the risk of proving myself to be the idiot that my wife claims I am,
: did I buy the right stuff, or have I totally misunderstood? I got RIT dye
: powder, but it's generally used for tie-dying cloths and stuff like that.
: It was in the materials section (as in sewing) of the store. Am I a bone
: head or not?

: Rick
Is this what you use to dye a SOF? RIT dye? What is this water putty? What is it's role?
