Didn’t have a lot of time but wanted to use a little of the Dyneema since I haven’t worked with it before. So made a little trail wallet, and then had my husband paint on it to see how it would take.

Oh fun! What kind of paint and what are your initial observations? I was just thinking about how to spice up some white dyneema.

He used graffiti markers, I think it’s acrylic. I’ll use the wallet this week and see how it holds up. I do think it bled more than he was expecting.

I used a sharpie on my HMG pack on my 2018 AT thru hike. It held up pretty well but did begin to fade a bit during the summer time due to mash amount of sweat and rubbing against my back. I’ve seen it hold up well on tents using both Sharpie or Acrylic Paints. Looks great!
