Dying Lego Trans yellow pieces with turmeric
This is something I want to share with all Lego fans out there.
I saw this procedure on eurobricks.com forums around a week ago.
For what I´ve seen, this idea has become quite popular. People are using turmeric to turn Transparent clear Lego pieces into Transparent yellow color ones without much effort.
Here's Space Police XVIII´s recipe posted there:
1 mix 2cups water and ~6tsp turmeric
2 bring to boil, stir well
3 reduce heat until it's just barely simmering
4 toss pieces in, stir to remove air bubbles
5 simmer for 5-7 minutes, checking color now and then
6 keep stirring so pieces won't just sit on the bottom and melt
