carpet dye

[capitoljake13]

Where did that sweet cup holder come from. I need one.

I did the black spray on mine. Ended up using around 8 cans.. Way more than I thought, but I had the carpet out and did it outside.

I taped the shit out of my interior and just sprayed the headliner in place...warning the fumes start to accumulate very fast even with both doors open, I would suggested throwing as much on as you can tolerate then waiting 20-30 minutes for the car to air out

Im also interested in how you did the headliner? Did you remove it from the car or just tape everything up? I degreased and pressure washed my grey carpet and then dyed in black with 4 cans of duplicolor black fabric dye and used a nylon brush to get it down into the nap of the carpet and fluff the carpet back up. I also ordered a new set of OEM black floor mats so that the high traffic areas wont get worn and lose their color.

use the carpet dye from brydana, i believe its called skid mark black, its a spray paint can, but I didnt use a stiff brush and it isnt crusty at all.

Anyone have any opinion on how close the 'Nissan Rouge' color is to Cardinal red? I have some really..strange stains on the carpet in the back.

SEM ColorCoat is awesome. Used with great success over here.

I did mine with duplicolor vinyl and fabric dye. Its ok, but I think i'd recommend trying SEM's.

After a light brushing its plenty soft.

I have called every single upholstery supply shop and every upholstery shop in my area.

None dye. None sell the dye, either. Not for an automotive application, anyway.

I did some web searching. Found several sites suggesting "RIT" dye in a spray bottle of very hot water. Haven't tried anything yet.

Omg I wish i read this 2hours ago. I just did the same exact thing calling hella places and none of them dye or sell. haha thats what I get for not reading up! lol

I have a cloth rear seat that looks like crap. Has anyone tried to dye one?

[ditchdigger]

i have had fantasitc results with "Colorbond" products from http://www.bryndana.com/ And they come in BMW color codes!

I like it alot more than the SEM stuff. At least for leather and vinyl. The SEM products always leave a thick gritty feeling coating that can be scratched off with a fingernail. I have not been able to scratch off the colorbond and it does not change the feel. I dyed a red leather steering wheel black and it lasted 3 years before needing a touch up in my daily driver.

The vinyl dash and leather Porsche 911 seats for my caddy project were done in Mercedes "Java" tan and look and feel great a year later.


i have not tried the carpet dye yet. They claim it leaves a soft finish and based on my other experiences with their stuff I am inclined to beleive them.
