Just thought I'd post a review of this dye I just tried. I tryed dying my seats on my Del Sol a few months ago with the stuff from autozone.. the results were horrible. The color was patchy, and it didn't make any of the fade less obvious. I was at WalMart looking for some accent paint for my dash, and I saw this ColorBond stuff. I originally wanted to paint my panels black since they are half black, and half this ugly gray color that fades really easily. I figured since it was $7 at WalMart that it would be at least cost $14 at Autozone for a similar thing, and since it costed about 4 times more than the other stuff I tried before, it should work decent lol
I tried it, and it worked GREAT. I dyed my door panel, and several other interior panels. I would have done more, but I need to pick up another bottle or two tomorrow. It goes on easily, and drys completely in about 10 minutes. The original texture shows through, and it actually has a really nice feel to it when it drys.
I did 3 coats each on my door panel, a large panel that goes behind my seats, and the two speaker panels pictured with one bottle.
Here's a pic... the speaker grills were just painted black using Krylon Fusion plastic paint. The gray panel is what it originally looked like (dirty and faded... but you can't really tell from pic) and the black is after dying.
