    1. clean with

    I'm sure you can get this shit in america it's pretty popular stuff
    2. nourish (nivea works well)
    -wait a few hours-
    3. Dye- shoe polish, the expensive pasty stuff
    -wait a few minutes-
    4. Buff with with a brush
    (repeat steps 2-4 until they look like you want)
    wait a few hours
    5. Apply mink oil - this shit is messy and will make your clothes dirty
    6. quick buff

    total cost ± $15-20
    two things, black is easy because it's just black.. dove or tan/pearl beige is a pain in the ass to get an exact match with shoe polish. I've done dove seats with a mix of grey and white shoe polish. lastly, the more work you put in the longer it will last.. which is a no brainer.

    It dries overnight, but the results are nowhere near as good as a full re-dye + lotion + mink oil like I did on my other e30
