I want to dye plastic ie. my xbox 360 controller?

I want to dye plastic ie. my xbox 360 controller.I've seen an article on how to do it but I can't track down any plastic dyes in the UK.

Answer:

Plastic has to be dyed when it is cast. When plastic is molded it needs to be bone dry, the amount of heat used will turn any available water to steam and make the plastic bubble. If there were a way to dye plastic it wouldnt be water based. Even if you could do it, it might be easier to just find one the color you want.
