: should be no problem unless the nylon has a UV coating for example,
: in which case it will not take the dye well.

I talked to Cory and he recommended tinting part B with artist oils, rare earth pigments. Seems that the fine weave is filled when when dying and causes delam problems down the line. So I'll head to the art supply store. Thanks for the replies.
