I used Dingtone to do my double neck burst. not the cheapest method but other dyes (like Keyda) would work?
Its certainly an option to go that way, though my experiences with dyes haven't been fantastic (To be fair my experiences with paint haven't been stellar either!).
I will have to review what is available and consider options prior to experiments.
