It fades really quick, which will make your seats look even worse.

its true if you sit on the seats it will fade but not into your clothes i painted my tan prelude seats red and it turned out great until the fade. My rear seats still look as red as can be but my fronts are worn maybe ill spray them again tonight

It may matter from brand to brand how fast it fades. I tried the krylon on an old carpet and it would fade within a month.

I used duplicolor fabric paint. The fabric feels a bit hard at first but goes away as soon as you break in the seats.

yeah i've hear mixed stories on the fabric paint. from what i've seen it looks decent, just don't paint your panels they never look right.

if you will use sem products it will work and you will have no problems. you cant just buy the spray and be done though. you have to use there plastic cleaners, preps/primers step by step and it will work flawlessly.
