this was BY FAR the best chameleon cell tutorial I've seen! can't wait to finally nail this technique, love the results!

@mathewm917 Год назад

Really appreciate you posting this guide

DITTOOOOOO

@jwhannell Год назад

This helped me put some things together that I had been missing from other tutorials. Excited to try this out! Thank you!

@chrismoseley4828 10 месяцев назад

Great vid. I did slightly lose my shit when you kept referring to that SPATULA!! as a squeegee 🙄🤣

@TheScottishKayaker Год назад

If you do a lot of honey comb as a base you could use a board and drive finishing nails through it to make a template. Then you can coat the nails and do all of the dots at once for a more consistent pattern much faster.

@ArcticKats Год назад

Great tutorial! Funny enough, my local DG shop said the same thing about the yellow 3-in-1 silicone, that it produces the best cells.

@mrvaughn6206 Год назад

@erajomppa Год назад

Great tutorial! There excellent disc dyeing tutorials on youtube and this is definitely one of the best I have come across. Keep them coming and I know I will watch them. Sharing your experiences and little tidbits of information, like poking the pin all the way through (which you pointed out does not really matter). Im still new to disc dyeing and where I am from the materials, like floetrol, are hard to come by and expensive. I have experimented with chameleon dye, but with poor results. Watching tutorials and absorbing the information here and reddit will (hopefully) increasing my chances of success! Many thanks for taking the time to record your process!

liked and subbed before the video even started based solely on your work from IG, love your stuff man thanks for sharing

@satulytman Год назад

I've seen a few other methods (mostly shaving cream or lotion beds and some spin dyeing) and read about folks using saran wrap, but did not really understand what the saran wrap drag was all about. Seeing this vid made it all clear. All 3 of those discs are beautiful.

@thomasbarnes261 Год назад

Would love to see the bubbles technique next!

@EdBrewhead Год назад

Watched your vid. You do some of the best dyes I’ve seen. I liked your video so much I had to go and buy the disc. If you dye anymore molds that I bag I’ll probably be snatching those up as well. I can’t wait to get my disc. Thank you!

@n8rackdyes Год назад

This was so helpful thank you! I primarily use white glue beds amd I was struggling with this type of cell dye. The round pan was my downfall lol.

@Treedps47 Год назад

Your the best brother. About to send some beds using this technique right now. I’ll send you some pictures of the results to your insta. Delaware dyes by the way.

@ImperiusRexFilms Год назад

Very very very awesome and appreciated video! I have been hoping to find something that shows everything step by step for these cell dyes and this is just perfection. Thank you!! One quick question - is the black just another floetrol mix that you have bottled, or was it a different mix? Would love to see more!

@sleepmachine7522 Год назад

So after you re-swipe the bed with black, do the cells reform because the first time you added the silicone? Or do you repeat that process too? Incredible tutorial and even better results. Subbed immediately!

@trizkit995 Год назад

Something I thought of before you raked the lines with the pic. Was to put the disc in on one end and slide and turn at the same time I wonder how that would turn out

@LilbotDiscGolf Год назад

really interesting idea!

@breannacozart9313 Месяц назад

Hi! I love your videos, I am getting ready to dye my first disc. I was curious as to why you use a floetrol bed vs a glue bed in a lot of your dyes. I was watching another youtuber for the lazywave technique and they use a glue bed. Does the floetrol work better for cells? Thanks for any input!

@bailey0619 Год назад

Hey thanks for tutorial! Very well done. I attempted it, but had trouble keeping the poured dye in straight lines and separated, they ended up bleeding together. Do I just more practice pouring or maybe I put too much floetral in the pan? I ended up doing a second wipe with gold dye and it came out really cool. Thanks again

@johndunlop5590 7 месяцев назад

Awesome video! What color blue and yellow did you use??

@firered2286 Год назад

Great video. Im assuming you mentioned it and I just didn't pay close enough attention, but how much total floetrol did you use? I feel like I use waaaaay too much when I dye.

@Enyahs. Год назад

Loving this content! Would it be easier/more efficient if you put black on either end of the tray and swiped from one side to the other? Rather than reswiping the same black over your colours? Thanks for your videos man, huge help!

@LilbotDiscGolf Год назад

Might give that a try with a long tray

@sebastiansormunen4084 Год назад

is it possible to do this with lotion? instead of floetrol? Great video and good instructions! :)

@nkg9907 Год назад

What temperature do you end up with at the disc?

@TurboKing Год назад

Great tutorial! I’ve made several attempts at this style, some look okay but none like yours! I have a question about your plastic wrap…did that cutter come with the pack or did you have to add it?

@FlyingInsaner Год назад

That cutter is on the plastic wrap package. Atleast I have seen this type of plastic wrap in some stores (norway/sweden).

@sakaripiippo6265 Год назад

Awesome tutorial! If I may ask, what is the tool you use to poke the "combs" ? And do you have any tips what I should do differently, as I tried my best to follow these steps, but when I had dragged all the black over , the colors from underneath were still very visible and started already creating a lot of cells.

@chantzsprowl2512 Год назад

You could use a paper clip. A lot of his cells he uses a hair pick

@Van_bya_river Год назад

So my floatrol dye keeps sinking to the bottom instead of sitting on top. Any ideas on how to prevent that? I appreciate it.

@AndresWeber Год назад

How do you go about doing the second generations? Once you pull, do you add more black to the edging and just wipe? Do you mix the colors in any way beforehand from what happens during the pull? Do you add more color? It's just so nuts that you kept the color separation on the other generations even though the bed looked pretty mixed up after pulling the first disc from the bed. Thanks again for the help!!!

@LilbotDiscGolf Год назад

Yeah I typically add more swipe color each generation. I don't usually add more of the other colors but you definitely can if you want a more prominent color.

@derantil Год назад

Excellent video! I love those discs! Question: I am following this video exactly, using the same ratios/ingredients, including the same exact silicone brand. However, whenever I poke the tooth with silicone into it, nothing happens? Any particular tips for this?

@sleepmachine7522 Год назад

I’m pretty sure he is using a pin or needles for sewing, so it has a hole where the thread would usually go. That thread is holding the silicone (I think)

@nickciaramitaro2263 Год назад

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have been struggling with cell dyes and this will help a ton! Only question I have is did you mix the silicone in the cup with something or did you just have the silicone in the cup when you dipped the needle?

@LilbotDiscGolf Год назад

No silicone in any of the cups

@nickciaramitaro2263 Год назад

I know there isn't any silicone in the cups with the floetrol dye but there wasn't silicone in the cup you were dipping the needle in either? I thought that the needle was dipped in the silicone to make the cells when you poked the bed.

@LilbotDiscGolf Год назад

@@nickciaramitaro2263 the only silicone in this is from the cup I dip the pin in

@nickciaramitaro2263 Год назад

Awesome, thanks for the reply!

@dwk1986 Год назад

Hello, would you add or change anything to this tutorial after doing it for another 10 months?

@CatholicTom Год назад

How did you mix the black? You explained the other colors but not the black. Do you still mix it the same as the others with floetrol?

What ratio do you use to mix your iDye Poly Black? Are you mixing silicone in it here?

@lomainzz Год назад

Great video one of the most comprehensive makes me want to try experimenting 🤓

@rtzeexy374 Год назад

Wait wait wait that paper with how to mix pro chem I need that I didn’t get anything like that. I know I’m making some mistake with my mixing

@CatylisticRevo62 Год назад

Does the iDye poly affect the cell development in any way (other than color)? I have been through almost an entire jug of floetrol without having cells develop when poked. I'm fairly certain I used no oil in my first couple of attempts (other than poking). Thank you for this detailed video

@LilbotDiscGolf Год назад

Sounds like you have the wrong oil if I had to guess. You need 3 in 1 silicone oil

@blakeplutshack8381 Год назад

How much idye black do you use?

@xerokota Год назад

question/help - what ratio of floetrol, powder and then silicone oil would you use in an 8oz container? also how do you/dont you mix in the oil???

@LilbotDiscGolf Год назад

I've added a link to the PCAD mixing instructions in the video description. This method doesn't mix any oil into the floetrol

@jkane6248 Год назад

Instead of Saran Wrap to spread the black over the top, do you think a drywall taping knife would work?

@LilbotDiscGolf Год назад

I have tried a squeegee and it doesn't work quite as well as plastic wrap

@jamesdenton8821 11 месяцев назад

Came across your stuff recently. You may have said before, but I don't remember hearing it. What wattage heat lamp bulb are you using? Thanks!

@LilbotDiscGolf 11 месяцев назад

250w infrared

@xEricStephensx Год назад

You usually hear about people using acetone or alcohol to help the dye penetrate. It's crazy you don't need it. Do you think you would need it more if your not using a heat lamp?

@LilbotDiscGolf Год назад

i dont think its necessary at all when using floetrol. It will probably eat the stamp on whatever disc you put in as well.

@patrickrobertson9125 Год назад

Great tutorial - very thorough. You might want to get a camera stand as the head mount was making me seasick.

@shanesplanetshane3795 Год назад

agreed. I only made it 3 minutes and couldnt watch anymore...

@EME1311 3 месяца назад

Hi Sry for my bad english, but i have a question. I tried disc dyeing the first time today and i used flotroel colors in a Lotion bed. and the colors are very bright Like pastell colors. It Looks nice but Not what i expected. So now the question: should i use Lotion colors in Lotion Beds and flotroel colors in flotroel beds. But what colors do i use in shaving cream beds ? What are your experiences ? Have a Great day Eva

If you do not have a heat lamp, how long would you let the disc set?

@LilbotDiscGolf Год назад

At least 12 hours, but you'll never get the same saturation

@jackl4laughs 7 месяцев назад

Yep, the moment when you realize "why havent I dyed a disc on a turkey tray, they're disposable and all?" Sorry fake countertops I had to get rid of due to looking like someone died on you, despite plastics rolls and newspaper to try to not let you into the countertops, instead I kind of of just dyed them spotty red.(shaving cream dyes in pie tins, because thats how frisbee started) Gotta ask, ever melt the cups youre mixing in with too hot of water?

@timothymcdevitt4981 Год назад

If you used paper plates you’d have less waste.

@j45002 Год назад

Man this could really have used some time saving edits. Like: - When you're dipping the little rod in there. - The part where you put it under the heat lamp and we had to sit there for like 4 minutes - The part where you put the little pieces of saran around the disc when it was in the dye - THE ENTIRE washing the disc part off!! Great discs and idea, but some of those things could've been cut by 75%.
