anyone here dye or paint a headliner and rear seat
im trying to get my 68 on the road and just have to cut some corners to save some.i have a light blue back seat and headliner and need to know what you guys are using for this type of job.thanksfor helping out.i want to dye them black.
I use PPG vinyl dye mixed up by a local paint supplier so I just put it in a jamb gun and shoot it. I usually get it a couple quarts at a time and it lasts for a long time in the can so if I need it a couple years later it's still fine. A quart's plenty to do a rear seat and headliner with a lot left over for other projects or touch ups down the road. You won't be able to use a HVLP gun easily because of the tip needed to shoot the headliner if it's in place. Like anything prep is key!
Here's the label info off the can I have
OEM: WA848 MFG: GM
Tint guide UCV120 BLACK
DMV23 120.0
DMV14 1762.0
