In-World Dyeing
Decorative blocks already placed in the world may be dyed without breaking them. Simply use the dye on the block. Note that this completely swaps the block with the new one and may not be used on blocks which already form a multiblock structure.
Lore
Hexorium Dye is a composite made out of a regular everyday dye and finely ground Hexorium. This special material has a property which allows it to very effectively and quickly bind with other solid Hexorium materials, effectively giving it a color when smeared on. Further studies on how this behavior works have shown that Hexorium seems to bind directly to normal dyes, as well as the solid material. In fact, Hexorium's special properties allow it to quickly spread over the whole surface of the block on its own with minimal effort from the user.
