Dreaded blue dye tests!

Has anyone actually had a positive experience with these things?!

Curious, how can you tell the difference between a false positive (evap line) or a real positive with these?

Do you hate them as much as Ive read? :)

Anyone have pictures of their blue dye tests? (With results of course)

Do clearblue and ept count as the bad guys?

    An evap line has relatively no color. Its grey. However, the blue dye can be deceiving because the light blue dye can look like an evap or the evap can look like a light blue light. The color and the grey are very close.

    Do a blue dye and a pink dye test. honestly, as long as you read the blue dye test within the time period you should be okay. If you want to be sure though, do a blue and a pinky dye. The pink dye ones hardly ever give false positives.

    I always just used the digital tests.  There is no guessing with them.  They were always right for me!

    I would recommend a pink dye test! I had the same problem with blue dye and took 3 of them without getting a clear answer before I figured out to get a pink dye...answer was very clear!

    My experience this time was the opposite of most. I was taking pink dye tests that I couldn't be sure were positive or I was just hoping to see something. I took a blue test later in the day and got an immediate positive result. It was nice to not have to
