Hey good thread Slayar! I've been looking into re-colouring some slightly sunfaded grey headrests. Has anyone tried the createx transparent fabric paints from airbrushshop listed here http://www.airbrushshop.com.au/products-paints.shtml They have some good colours including grey [5129 code] that looks pretty close to vl grey, and a tint white and tint black. Looks like you could spray it then rub it in with a gloved hand like Slayar did.

For the guys that did this a while ago... Hows it going? Any colour loss? Does it rub off on your clothes/skin?

Yeah, some feedback on the results would be great

just did this to a S1 burgundy interior used about six cans to do the seats and door cards used the poppy red color there was another colour, but it had too much pink in it. came up real nice and blended really well ... excellent article Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Any guys that did this with any feedback about fading over time??? Wats the go if i wanted to go from beige to White?? would it work easy? to do the vinyl roof lining do i use vinyl paint or this fabric paint??? Cheers Jim

Cheers Jim I think you'll find the product is called "Vinyl & Fabric Dye". Is on the VHT cans anyway.

so has any one tried this stuff with beige interior yet? and does it realy make the seats look new or just white?

Guys this really is a TIGHT ARSE way to band aid a problem. I've had a couple of people ring me asking advice as they are half way through doing it and have hit problems and I would strongly advise against using this method trying to recolor seats and doors. It is like trying to run 9's on a std turbo, it just doesn't happen!

comparing the performance of an engine to dieing seats a different colour is a pretty bad analogy. who noes, it might work, it might not, thats why everyones trying to get feed back from the fools that arent replying

C'mon man, it doesn't hurt to try new things Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Hence why I said there have been numerous phone calls to me with people complaining it didn't work Quote: Originally Posted by VLHERO Lets all believe this guy and fork out for custom interior from him. C'mon man, it doesn't hurt to try new things Mate I couldn't care less if people come and get me to do a trim for them or not. I'm only offering advice with my years of experience and I would advise against it! Why ruin a perfectly good set of seats and have them fade/flake and rub off with sweat and spend $100 in paint doing so. Yes we all try things as well but at some point money has to be spent!
