    I ordered a kit (large size) w/ extra filler and a top coat.
    They advised that because I have a vert, the extra top coat layer will help to protect it from the sun damage.
    Picked up some foam brushes as well as some nice small extra soft nylon brushes.

    Also got the Leatherique kit, which I will use to clean/condition the seats as much as possible before the re-dye process.

    Does anybody have insight into what brush is better to use (ie. foam or small nylon), and whether I can apply the top coat with a brush and not an airbrush?

      Just finished doing my mtech 1 wheel. I'll let it cure for at least 24hrs before installing back in car. Came out great.
