    Steve is right: he didn't receive the payment I sent because I sent it to an aol address instead of a gmail address, so it sat there, unclaimed. My screw-up, and apology. Jim

    The plastic is almost certainly nylon. Nylon is a condensation polymer which means that water is a byproduct of the polymerization process. Actually made some once in chem class.
    Anyway, nylon absorbs water, and any dye in the water will be absorbed into the nylon. An easy way to picture this is the nylon as a bowl of spaghetti, and if you add tomato sauce all those nice little strands of nylon get coated.
    Many plastics behave in a similar way, and water will percolate, very slowly, into or through it. I had a acrylic window in the bottom of a water cooler that had this problem; it killed the product because we could not stop the leak.
