I am interested in seeing if anyone had success dying maroon seats. Everyone knows that this color is the worse when it fades. Before I attempt to put time into dying the seat fabric and door panel fabric, I would like to hear feedback and see others results.

I dyed the top of my rear seat in my SS because it was faded very bad. I used the correct claret paint from Mike's Montes and just started applying light coats until it looked close. I can't imagine trying to do a whole seat. Would take a lot. I just did mine as a temporary fix until this winter when the seats get redone in vinyl.

Any recommendations on color or brand of fabric dye? I'm looking for oldsmobile claret.
