No photos at the moment but wanted to post anyway. Very successful dye job on dark earth P220 combat grips. Used a pan with about 8 cups of water, one 8 oz container of black liquid Rit dye and 2 oz liquid Rit navy blue. Cleaned grips very well, boiled water, turned to low, added dye, put grips in facing up, cooked for an hour stirring occasionally, turned off heat, covered, let soak for another hour or so, removed, rinsed in cold water, dried. Result looks as good as if they were originally black. P220 Combat with black grips, sweet:D

I've dyed a lot of pmags, and polymer gun parts. I did 2 HK SL8 rifles and a USC. I use green as an additive to the black to prevent a purple hue. I prep by scrubbing with simple green degreaser, rinse, then dye. Rinse in cold water and after I allow the parts to air dry then rub them down with denatured alcohol, removes the dried dye on the surface and prevents it from coming off on your hands. I haven't had any problems with bleeding, probably dyed 300 parts.

No bleeding, yeah I heard about using green as the additive to the black but went with blue because of the Rit color chart and it is dead on, no purple hue at all.
