Nike MAG replicas (V2 and V3 only)

cavx · Jan 16, 2017

From what I am seeing from my wear pair, unless you are walking over stuff with oil like bitumen or concrete car parks, these soles should last a fair while. It is just a shame that the rubber is yellow.

So I picked up a bottle of clear nail polish today and have applied it to the bubbles.
Before

After

Light test

I also have a pack of blue dye, however mine is not the darker blue some of you have used. I am hoping to simply get the yellow out without the soles turning blue. I am hoping they just go icy.

Probably won't do that until tomorrow now.

That looks a little rough. One of mine kinda did that so I lightly sandded it off with an emery board and reapplied. Went on smooth the second time.

What are you using as the binder for your dye?

Yeah mine seem a little rough too. Well they seem ok without the lights on

I may try sanding them down and reapply, see if it takes smoother

Mine? Yeah it will need a 2nd coat and a light sand. Wet and Dry at 800 grit will take a bit more effort, but will come up really nice.

I think the issue was with how damn hot it has been here the last few days. This stuff was supposed to be 5mn and was drying on the brush. Gonna be 36C today again.

Not sure about the binder. It only mentions using salt on the pack, but that is for dying cloth.

I did one continuous coat and kep it as thin as possible.

I think the issue is that the factory frost is too course. Coating the part in clear will fill in those scratches making it too clear, so sanding the part is still required. But you want to use fine paper (like 800 grit) so you don't just go back to the factory look.

Can you give us specifics of what has been done? Do you plan on addressing the dim EL?

-Looks like the EL panel is the same other then the tape being removed?
-LED bubbles look dimmed

David, How does this stop the two sections from failing? The weak point appears to the centre between the two domes.

Will you eventually do all sizes?

cavx · Jan 16, 2017

Ok redid the bubbles. Before I reapplied the nail polish, I gave the bubbles a light sand with 800grit wet and dry. You don't need a lot of water, just dip the paper.

Then on to the dye.

As I said, mine is not the same RIT dye and I have mixed mine into container that holds about half a litre. It looks navy blue but once painted on is considerably lighter.

Shoe on the left has been treated, the shoe on the right has not.

I also shot a quick video on how I have done this and will post it soon.

Given you were one of the early adaptors, how are your shoes going? Do you wear them? Do the lights still work?

I've worn them about 3 times ever and keep them in the box. They still fully work. The soles are just a little yellow.

Apparently they have attenuated the LEDs.
