As you recall, I had the rear deck recovered in black about 5 months ago. I installed it and the black turned to light tan within that time. The upholstery guy was blown away by it and offered to recover it. He seems to think there was something wrong with that batch of material...no idea.
I attempted to dye it and it was working fine, but apparently I used too much salt in the dye solution and now I have sweat marks on the freshly dyed rear deck cover. That's now black with white "sweat marks."
I am going to attempt to get rid of the salt "sweat marks." If that fails, then I will have it recovered. This is going to be a problem with my A pillars too as the same batch of material was used and I have no tint on the front windshield. I might look for clear UV blocking film and do it myself. FYI, brand new windshields are RAD.
