I need the elastics for ,y bright blue shoulder belts, and I'm hoping someone has a source. I found white in 3/8" (I think the elastics were originally 5/16), which I tried to dye (with fabric dye). I got really close with the color, mixing aqua and royal blue, but the dye just won't hold on the material, which is a polyester rubber blend. I also tried various combinations of heat, vinegar, and salt in the dye mixture, but nothing worked. I also searched on line for a couple hours--I didn't see anything close enough. t could try the vinyl dye, but I don't suspect it will work well on elastic that gets stretched repeatedly. Any assistance would be appreciated.
