yeah, a dip won't do much. i didn't like how the finished looked non-uniform on mine after dying it so i figured what the hey, ill see what this black looks like under the red. i have some alcohol prep pads lying around (similar to the ones nurses use before giving you a shot) and after rubbing the cover for about 5 mins with the pads, it didn't even make it's way thru the dye. it did however make the finish more uniform so i'm just gonna leave it as is and see how long it keeps this way.
