I'm going to go out on a limb here and say no, only cause this question has been asked a metric shit ton of times ( acu sucks-I want to dye/fix/paint it ) and never heard trying this way and it working or else there would be a ton of post's about it.
dyeing it some sort of ranger green seams to work the best from the pics I've seen. |

This. I've seen some pic's a while back where someone did it and it actually looked pretty damn good. I'll see if I can find it. |

Some ACU and 3-color desert gear rinsed with RIT Dark Green dye.Most of the stuff in the pic is lighter than it appears in real life. Lower right corner is pretty close to finished color.
I don't know of anyone who has successfully removed color from nylon.

Paint or dye. By the time you wash out the color, you've ruined the fabric.
I'd be inclined to go the way Raf suggested, though I'm currently torn. I guess I live in one of the few areas where ACU makes sense. With the mossy rocks and pine trunks around here, ACU blends far better than Multicam. As I've said before, out in FoF gigs, I'd first find the guy in multicam, who stuck out like a fresh cowflop against the background, and then work out from him to locate his ACU wearing teammates. |
