In this video I go over how to get a beautiful Russian Red color on your AK47 style furniture. Here I apply the Russian Red dyed polyurethane. This stock set was custom made by Ironwood Designs to fit the Norinco Mak90.

I'm sure it's been said in the comments but for anyone who uses to new formula of Rit, use denatured alcohol instead of Acetone and it will not turn blue. Followed the exact same process myself but substituting the Acetone and got the same end result. 😁

Thanks, I watched a few other guys on youtube do similar but I pretty much followed the same method as nsz85. His came out really nice. I just put the final coat of poly on it tonight so should have a finished product vid tomorrow sometime.

Thanks for the how to..been using your technique on several AK builds...turns out AMAZING.. I found out if you think the clear coat is to shiny at the end hit it with steel wool..then lemon pledge 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

They change the formula of RIT dye in 2010 it turns blue and acetone. Also want to get it done within 12 to 16 hours or else it darkens. You can get anywhere from I’ll die in orange to Russian read this way

Can you tell me the exact color red you used? Also are both packages the exact same color? One looked slightly different. Thanks for the video, by the way. This looks great.

Beautiful stock set man. I'm trying to do the same thing to my M92 handguards but the results are not coming out like yours...

Inna Minch Got it all figured out bro. Once I ordered the old formula from Rit Dye it worked perfectly. The new formula in the small box at a local store will not work anymore.

How long will the rit dye in poly stay good for?? I just made a batch & Im waiting on extra furniture sets to do

@zackhoover5171 Жыл бұрын

A long time....I think the dye actually gets darker and more profound the longer it sits in the jar..I mixed a batch and used it for a span of 10+ months..

I would have thought the acetone would eat the sponge
