RUNAMUCK Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 My old RX3 coupe had really worn carpet. It was quite thread bare, and all the threads were yellow. Looked like shit. I just repainted it solid black with spray cans. (not even carpet paint) People who had sen it before and after were amazed at how good it looked. It was black to begin with though.

MACKAZ Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Plasticote used to make a very good spray can dye, unsure whether its still available though.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thminiman Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 go to some like womans clothes material shop or some shit bro, despite how dumb it sounds you can buy dies and shit from there, you just fill a tub/bucket/something big enough to fit whatever in with hot water, and throw this die bomb thing in, turns the water whatever colour its meant to then you soak the shit in it for a while have seen them used before, dont know how strong they are etc but its worth a shot, spray painting sounds dumb to me, jump in car with bare feet and come out looking like you've been walking in a coal mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
