Dylon dye - seat dyeing
« on: April 09, 2009, 06:52 AM »


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 :daumenhoch:

is this the right stuff?

http://www.dyeshop.co.uk/catalog/multi-purpose-c-38.html

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