Today i got my seats re-dyed due to not looking there best. The guy i used is from Leicester and has done an excellent job. Seats now look like new.

He was at ours doing it all day, started around 10.30 and finished at 5.30
 
They look great @billz, money well spent.
To me it was as it now finishes the Zed off to the way i wanted it. Have not been happy with the seats for about 3 years now. Tried doing it my self but i was not happy. He does not use a pre mixed colourant, he mixes it up untill it matches the colour of the existing seats. Took him around 45 minutes to get the right mix.
 
Looks great. Did he remove the seats ?How much did he charge
 
Top work for in situ job Bill. They look like new mate.

Tony.
 
Ooh now I do like that. So this guy travelled to yours rather than you going to him, do you mind divulging the cost?

No he totally masked off and did it in Situ.

£300 for a full day
But looking at how they have come out well worth it
 
V smart Bill. I remember ours seats looking like that when we had them done:thumbsup:. Don't look like that any more:(
 
That looks great mate. It took me two days with Ants help so I don't think £300 is out of order at all. Did he take the seats out?
 
That’s a great colour scheme, really like that.
 
Has anybody tried redying their own seats. Just got a set cheap but fancy doing them black. Any recommendations on the best product to use?
 
The Furniture Clinic do a great recolouring kit for doing just what you propose which also includes an airbrush if you don’t have access to one already. Their products are pretty good and everything is provided in one kit that you will need.
 
Yeah did mine along with the door cards. Easy to do but don't do what I did and let the heavens open just as you've finished a seat! @Antm72 had to call and save mine for me.
