From start to finish the process was very amateurish and rushed.

You need a face mask when you spray, but the seat looks good.

Sude is not vinyl or fabric. Suede is leather, and you cannot paint anything with a nap. I wouldn't be surprised if it says something on the can as to don't use on suede. By default, paint will also make the suede stiff and not soft anymore. That's why you got that stripe. Paint that dries isn't good for suede. Just have them reupholstered.

Sein Maestro says:

this legit looks like a cactus chair now. that sounds of friction is too funny

Michael Bell says:

Try Sem dye, its seems to be a better product, but the cost is a bit higher.

Pat Love Pats2cents says:

Sand paper might move the fabric grain to a more uniform flow or a stiff metallic brush. It looks a lot better.

Charles Lightfoot says:

Great video… I feel bad with the couple of screw ups you had but thats good for us to learn 🙂 Thanks

Tyson Evans says:

ah not a fail a good learning expierence

John Morales says:

I understand you had some flaws and that it wasn't perfect, that doesn't concern me. What I really want to know is how long did it hold up, and there was any residual trouble like black showing up on the clothes of people who sat in the passenger seat, etc.
