I have read waxin's sticky about how to dye a seat ( http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php?board=32.0 ) Top work, but remember reading somewhere that they have stopped selling dylon, is this correct? if so what dye are peeps using now or whats the best alternative. I want to dye a mongoose seat black, so i need to buy some ebony black Dylon, but dont want to spend hours looking for somthing that does no exist any more.

cheers all for your help, steve

how many tins per wheel will i need if its just to "refresh" a colour rather than do a complete colour change?
