I have used the spray color with success. I recommend cleaning first with vinyl prep. Clean is the key to a lasting job. If you are using this on a high wear area, i.e. a kick panel or seat, use a clear coat on top. If you don't want the armor-all wet look, use a 'satin' clear for less gloss. A paint supply store can mix you a good match for whatever color You need. Good Luck! Jim 86 951

RAF, I did mine this summer. It took me about 3 hours to do. It is very straight forward. Good luck. You'll really like your car with new carpet.

This dye or paint is formulated for plastics
and vinyl....be sure you get the right kind..
Mar-Hyde is the brand ....I used it on some
vinyl boat seats 15 years ago....still hasn,t
faded or peeled....and the boat has been outside.
