Re:Suade paint.? what can I use?
they sell a dye for clothes at walmart. it comes in black.
it's in powder form so you mix it with water. for a car seat i'd mix it and put it in a spray bottle and spray down the seats while they're outta the car. let it dry for a good 2 days out in the sun. rinse off any of the excess dye so it won't stain your clothe. and repeat this process if neccesary. that's what i'd do. |
Re:Suade paint.? what can I use?
YEah the RIT dye walmart sells is ----, no matter how many times you rinse it, it leaves bye behind, not really good for my application. there is some kick ass organic dyes in europe, but i dont know anyone that would search for me, i was thinking of getting paint and painting it.

A quick google for "upholstery paint" yielded this in the first page of results.....

The ebay one is for model cars, lol, good find though, the first stuff washes off, i need something permanent, i still think flat black paint would do the trick if applied in light coats.

i say just leave them alone if they are in good shape. Seems like too much of a hassle to recolor them. Or you could just find someone to trade with.
