Has anyone dyed grey tweed black?

I would say dye it in gloss black as it will look really nice and shiny...i would do it but i have got some almost new condition quality velour seats that i picked up from a 98 wreck...i would only ever sell them if i do get my bucket seats like i have always wanted...

Martin they look really nice and came out really good...im surprised they dont rub out especially on a really hot day...well done

The stuff I used was Gloss Jet Black.

 

any issues with the seats/panels running ?

 

Nope. Still looks a million bucks, but it's definitely not black. Just a very dark grey; still a remarkable improvement.

 

cheers, ripping out my tweed so my as well dye it and sell it

 

I'm going to disagree. The dyed black interior looks cheap and nasty. The colour is splotchy and not even across the whole surface making it very obvious. It also makes the material very stiff to the touch.

If you give that tweed interior a serious steam clean, it will look and feel amazing.

 

I done all trim in gloss jet black turned out really well. Though did have to restick few bits. If coated to much peels it off. Wouldn't do seats though.
