Artists make discoveries, not mistakes
Here is a frisbee that I used to mold some tiles in sanded grout roughly mixed ith some rit dyes...the grout piece fell apart completely as the dye prevented it from drying because there was too much water...subsequently the dye left a great marble texture on the frisbee with the sand leaving textural marks on the surface...I am familiar with dyeing techniques that incorporate rit dye on plastic such as frisbees...the results of using sanded grout as a mode to transfer the dye to the plastic is any area I would like to explore more as I make more grout blobs...I've even considered cutting them up once complete and reassembling them in a mosaic image...

I have never worked with rit dye on plastic. I have used ritz dye on paper, thread and cloth. Have you thought about using other pigments with different absorption rates.
