You can paint or dye the white Nylon 12 material any color you wish. I have found matte enamel spray paints to work well. (Use a few light coats)

I recommend the Molotow ONE4ALL Acrylic paint marker for any touch ups.
- The natural color of the Nylon 12 SLS power is gray.
- This material will darken slightly and smooth out with use.
- Dying may be added for an additional cost (Click here).
The nylon material can be dyed or painted.
