Dying 15k scar pattern armor?

Per subject... anyone try dying 15k necro scar pattern armor? I read once that it was broken.

I suppose the colors are off, like for regular scar pattern (e.g. dying it yellow comes out purple).

I tried a search on this but didn't come up with much.

Of course it'll give purple, what was the base color? I've dyed my all my 15k armor, including scar patterns <both for monk and nec> and I can tell you they both work. On scar patterns, dye doesn't "overwrite" the current dye, it adds to the "base" color. Same with chaos axes. Dying a chaos axe a different color adds to it's base color <A shiny blue>

It just takes a little know-how, that's all.
