Why? Not enough saturation? There is some theatre paint, Roscopaint, I think, which they said could be used to dye material, if thinned a lot. Their black paint was lovely, a true velvet black, not grayed like "black" house paint. I wonder if that would work (not that I'm looking for black, more like just because I'm curious).
