well if you need to dye seats, it can be done. I work in a body shop, and in my civic i dyed my door panels, dash, half of my visors, and in my old jeep i did my seats and such, lasted for the 2 years i had it, and no problems. 1st you need to clean the **** out of the seats, i always used some laundry soap and some hot water with a clean rag, and scrubbed the **** out of the seats. Then i would heat up the seats a bit with a hair dryer or so and spay on some adheasion promotor, i like the bulldog stuff myself. Then shoot on a little bit of color first, and also hit that with the hair dryer, give it a light coat at first and let it dry for about 10 minutes, then spray on another coat a little heavier and also use the hair dryer on that. Once you get a full coverage then you can shoot on heavier coats, i say go with the hair dryer to dry all coats, and dont go really heavy with the spray, alot of nice light coats will come out awesome. Then the dye, i have only used SEM dye, and i feel it works the best, its a litte more money then the other dyes ive seen, but i know it works, my door panels and dash in my civic look pro, and u can punch them, scratch them with your nails, do nething to them, and the color wont budge. Let me know how it comes out
