Silver Coloring — Detailed Guide
Silver for gear, structures and creatures
Silver Coloring is a dye in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. Its description: "This substance can be used to color certain items and structures." Applied directly, it colors the regions of armor, weapons and saddles; loaded into a 
Paintbrush or a 
Spray Painter, it paints structures and creatures. Each unit is single-use.
Cooking a batch
The dye is made in a 
Cooking Pot or an 
Industrial Cooker. One craft takes 10 seconds, yields 5 units and gives 2 XP. According to the ARK Wiki the ingredients differ between the games:
- ASE: 12
Stimberry, 6 
Narcoberry, 1 
Gunpowder and 1 
Water - ASA: 6 Stimberry, 6 Narcoberry and 1 Water
Weight and loot
A unit weighs 0.1 and stacks to 100, so a full stack weighs 10. Crates are another source: our records count 44 types that can contain it, such as the Genesis Blue, Green and Orange crates of Genesis Part 2, and list the dye on 9 maps, among them The Island, Extinction, Lost Colony and Ragnarok.
