Default is there anything better than SEM vinyl dye?

whats the best way to do tan to black interior change.

its a bitch to find a black interior for db8 that isn't busted and my tan interior is in good shape just not good color.

is there an actual dye not a coat that I can use

like a sharpie. that actually soaks into the material not just cover it like SEM spraycan
I used sem spray before and it flakes off if you catch it with something sharp. sharpie on the other hand is more permanent lol. im gnna buy whole bunch of sharpies and just squeeze them out on the interior

You could try leather dye maybe? But it might rub off...

why not they seem to be pretty permanent on the leather couch...

so I didn't know that theres SEM permanent DYE and the flexible coat for vinyl I thought it was same thing.

has anyone used the actual SEM permanent dye and how did it hold up?

I have used the sem flexible coat for vinyl and it sucks. any contact it peels off usually where vizors touch the headliner...
