      You don't use paint on carpet/or other soft material unless you want it to look/feel like crap. You need to clean it and then use dye, not paint

          I've heard of people painting the rear deck with certain paints and having it look great. I have seen pictures as well. Also I have seen people painting their whole carpets and it turning out awesome as well

            DYE not PAINT. Paint will make it dry, it needs to stay SOFT.

                the point is its fabric spray dye, not spray paint.
                why would you go buy paint when the spray dye is right next to it for the same price...

                        Yea, thats what you want. Its going to feel like shit, but it should look nice. As you said, you won't be putting your cheeks on it.

                          i did mine, it looks, pretty good-alright, somewhere in that range. I went antrhracite instead of black.

                          only the deck is done in this picture

                            I did my rear deck with black fabric paint and it came out perfect. I cannot remember the brand but I used 4 small cans of it.
