  • Very nice illustration, One tip on rattle spray cans I was taught also was to clean the tip like you showed and then turn upside down and spray till the clean air, LOL, (propellant) comes out, clearing the nozzle path. I re-stained years ago some leather corvette seats when I was rebuilding it. Luckily, I was able to buy the stain at an automotive paint store and used an air compressor.

    • Yes very good tip, I like when people add into the comment section. I have turned my cans upside down quite often then sprayed, I didn’t think to bring that up on here. Thank you so much

    • I usually have a rag with a little acetone to wipe it clean and I've never had issues with a clogged nozzle later on. Most cans of paint I've seen say to do turn upside down like you said but I've always been convinced the company wants us to run out of propellant to move on to the next can. Maybe I'm just paranoid but I'll remain unmoved on this quest to stick it to "big paint" lol

  • Hi Colored paint has dye in it for color. Dye is just the colorant. For soft, flexible surfaces, dye is appropriate. Paint is best for hard surfaces.

  • We have a vinyl seat that goes in a horse drawn Sleigh and we want to change it from black to red. Do you think that would work? Now you changed yours from a light color blue to a dark color black. We can see that working out OK

  • Oh yeah! I also use a magic eraser when cleaning the seats. The abrasive nature helps the dye adhere better. I haven’t used that VHT brand before. Does it stay glossy?

    • This one will stay glossy. It depends which one you buy. I’m sure you can buy an matte finish also
