fozchek 0 #2 June 20, 2006 You should definitely bleach first...then you can just dip them into koolaid!! Of course, i personally don't see anything wrong with orange to begin with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PeteS 0 #3 June 20, 2006 NO BLEACH, MATT!!!! Do some applique or get some different ones. Orange is ok as a color too, it's different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites TomAiello 25 #4 June 20, 2006 Why not just buy some new ones? They're not that expensive. If you want standard toggles (not big grab) I've got a couple sets of red ones sitting around, and I'll send them to you if you PM me your address. I traded them off my rigs and put (orange) big grabs on.-- Tom Aiello [email protected] SnakeRiverBASE.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites deadmanwalking 0 #5 June 20, 2006 Jimmy and Marta have yellow big grabs!Symmetry doesn't matter.

Packed into a rig it can seep out too and get on whatever it's packed against. I'm sure the bleach thing was a joke anyways. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies! Bonnie ==>Gravity Gear!
