Re: A $1.48 goes a long way... Black Battery Cover!

threw cover in after putting tape on lens areas... just to play it safe

saw cover turn purple... i said oh boy... it better get darker... i just left in there longer... for about 20 to 30 minutes.... took out cover.. rinsed off and perfect black... the inside is another story but who cares about that... the outside was perfect.... washed all the dye off with water in sink ... then rubbed it with a paper towel and all done and looking real OEM... i defintely recommend this to everyone... i chose the basic black and boy it is sleek... better then the original silver...

the only issue i have now is the smell of it ... how long still that goes away... right now the phone is sitting on my desk and i smell the dye... !
takes a day or two for the smell to dissipate
