You can dye Blu Tack by stretching and kneading it with marker ink.
Here's a step-by-step guide on how to dye Blu Tack:
-
Prepare the Blu Tack: Pull and stretch the Blu Tack until it becomes soft and easily mouldable. This makes it easier to incorporate the ink.
-
Apply the Marker Ink: Colour a small patch of the stretched Blu Tack directly with a marker pen of your chosen colour.
-
Knead the Ink In: Fold the coloured patch into the rest of the Blu Tack and knead it thoroughly. This distributes the ink throughout the Blu Tack.
-
Repeat as Needed: If the colour isn't as vibrant as you'd like, repeat steps 2 and 3 until you achieve the desired shade.
-
Wear Gloves (Optional): To avoid staining your hands, consider wearing gloves during the dyeing process.
By following these steps, you can effectively dye Blu Tack to create custom colours for various projects.
