Vinyl Dye over Black
« on: March 17, 2005 - 11:59:55 AM »
I have a co-worker who wants to dye a car-bra from black to a tan color.  Think it'll work ?

Thanks,

P.G.

hmmm...I would think he would have better luck going from tan to black but maybe if the material is open pored and with repeated applications?

BTW - dont know if you got my PM or not, do you still have that dash pad for an E-body w/AC?

P.G.,
   I gotta think you have to go from black to white, then to tan. That would be a pain in the arse for sure. I see no way to go straight from black to tan.  :grinno:
