Looking for opinions on Vinyl dye, mainly what have you guys used, how did/does it look, where you happy with the results right afterward, 6 months later, 1 year later... ETC....
tryin to dye some ugly green vynil black. I am planning on using SME (IIRC) which is hear is a GREAT dye. I do not want to use a "paint" nothing that fills in the vinyl texture, just actually changes the color...

I was also considering this http://www.autogeek.net/convertible-top-dye.html but i am not sure if that would work very well...

If I'm not mistaken, seat belts are made from polyester webbing, so you would be better off looking for a method to dye this type of material. I don't know how dyeing will affect the webbing's properties, so you might want to research that too.
Here is one link I found on dyeing polyester. http://www.pburch.net/dyeing/dispersedye.shtml

I will probably just tryo to find black seatbelts as i know black interior was a factory option on the particular car i am doing.

I am mainly just looking for something that will do the door panels, dash, and trim. I will be buying black carpet and seatbelts...

Look for SEM brand (not SME). I've used it and it's the tits!

Mar Hyde is the best if you can find any. SEM is next. Seat belts are nylon or nylon composite/ polyester. It wont dye, you might get a slight tint, but no color change.
