Let me know how the dye works, covers and holds up. I have a grey driver seat lower cushion I need to do a little work on along with the leather on the steering wheel that has some scratches.

here is some pics of my current progress:

i'm going for a cleamer look then the orginal 2 tone seats i did, the black is going where the smoke damage wont come clean, the alpaca will also be re-dyed to clean and freshen up the color

ed your ip cluster has shipped, you should see it soon,

fiebings ? i think thats the name of the black.....

for the tan, i'm using SEM leather products since i have the exact match of alpaca.

if you wanna to do a grey color.... use SEM products classic leather..... you can find it at auto body supply shops...... 1 can runs 12$ and will redo an entire seat almost

Thanks for the information.
I will be curious to hear how the dye wears.
Also after a month or so, don't forget to saddle soap and Lexol the seats to get the PH back to normal and maintain the look.
