Is it this you use to dye them. Might try it myself,cheaper than buying wheels.

yes mate thats the stuff,
first up get an old pan and put more than enough water to cover a full set of wheels, add the dye and put on low boil, add the wheels and boil for about 10-15 mins, add more water if needed as wheels should stay covered,
remove the wheels when done and run under a cold tap and put to dry,
i have been doing this for years and have had no probs at all

p.s. dont throw away the remaining dye let it cool and put it in a container for next time, it will do about 10 full sets of wheels
