Airsoft Canada - View Single Post - Worried about BDU wash fading, 1st soak in vinegar?

Im been involved in brazilian jiu-jitsu and its very common to soak our coloured "Gi's"(martial arts uniforms - black, blue, etc, and yes there are camo gi's out now) in vinegar for a day before the first wash to colour lock our gi's to counter fade wash.

Does anyone in airsoft soak their BDU's in vinegar before the first wash?

PS. I'm new to airsoft and I've read and researched ALOT (wife raises eyebrow. I tent to get hardcore with all my hobbies). I was aiming that my first post would be a contribution to the community and not a one liner rant or rave. I have no gear what so ever at the moment but my first purchase will be on a multicam BDU, eye/face protection and boots (wife's nephew will be lending me his extra guns to play until I buy my own).

And YES I will make sure I get aged verified (im 33) once I go out to my first game.
