Got some interior dye from duplicolor for the 300d sedan, seems to be going pretty good so far and looks like it should hold up.

I will let you know, I did try scratching it off with my fingernail to see if it would come off and it would not budge. We will see how the southern heat treats it though.

(05-21-2010, 10:43 AM)MB TECH Got some interior dye from duplicolor for the 300d sedan, seems to be going pretty good so far and looks like it should hold up.
so hows it holding up? i really want to chang my interior color, its blue and it looks sooo stupid, i hate it, black would be much better
is it alot of work to take all the interior apart?
love my w123
really want a w114

I tried it on a nissan 240sx for the door panels and got crap results. It didn't flake off anything it just had uneven colors to it. No matter how many times i did it. Who knows though it could have just been the panel I was using. I've seen other ppl's stuff that looked pretty good.
