 Re: CADPAT
Reaper -
Did you order these?
I have found out that there are some who are taking the ACU uniform and dying them with the dark green Rit Dye.
I think you have to di it more than once though to get nice and dark.

 Re: CADPAT
I've thought about giving it a try since ACU seems to be kinda' cheap.

 Re: CADPAT
Let us know how it turns out. Here is where I got the idea: http://www.militaryphotos.net/forums/sh ... p?t=150491Another guy suggested it be dye a few/several times to get the darker look.

 Re: CADPAT
Wow...his ACU's are MUCH better than the issued ones!! I'm really eager to try it out! I have a hat too, I may try Black on it first to see how it works and then determine what I want to do with the pants.
I dyed a 3 color desert recon mask once with black and it turned the tan OD green, the dark tan a dark green. Looked REALLY good.
Good find, C-man.

 Re: CADPAT
I've thought about dyeing my regular BDUs black instead of buying black ones just to save money.
I swear dudes in A-Stan must dye their stuff... Or maybe, they are just that dirty all the time. If you check out videos or pictures, you'll see that their ACUs don't even look like ACUs. They look more like the Desert MARPAT or even Multi-cam.

 Re: CADPAT
That's weird....
I just took a look and started browsing the ebaybanned site when I got the notice of your e-mail.
Did you ever try to dye the ACU?
