I am planning on dying the leather in my SC3. I will be going from TAN to BLACK.

I would like to hear some input from peaple who have done this already or just know some tech info.

Leatherique.com.

All products, info, and directions are located on that site.

Used them for a re-dye of my bolsters on my Ferrari.

I agreed with 355F1, go to Leatherique.com

Thank you for your post. I just purchased a ls 430 and when I went to clean the rear seats
I found that one of the reasons that the seats looked so good is because they have been dyed.
It is IVORY. I think will be doing some research on color codes too. I want to put the interior back to looking like as close to new as I can.
Currently it is discolored in some placed where I tested cleaning products. I saw that my sponge turned gray and it was not from dirt. I realized it was the dye lifting. I was worried that the dye would be hard to locate but, I am finding good information on the forms. Thanks and sorry if I'm slightly of topic but, I'll look to see if Leatherique is a good source for me too. Thanks

I would also recomend leatherique as it is actually a leather dye as opposed to a leather coating like SEM.

The weird thing is that if you do research on google you will find that the SEM sure coat system is actually more popular and given higher ratings then the leatherique products now.

I do leather repair on the side as a hobby and I purchased the entire SEM sure coat system, which allows you to color match any color and sheen.

So far ive had good results with it , but I really want to try the leatherique products as I think a dye is better then a coating.

my friend used leatherrique on his m3 to change his leather seat color, great results.

Do you guys know any shop that do this professionally in Southern CA?

Also, how do you take care of the leather afterward? Will Meg APC #101 diluted at 10:1 remove the dye out eventually??

there's a good DIY in the 2Gen section.. stock black interior to cinnamon or maybe it was tan to Cinnamon.. final results were perfect

Thanks guys! Some good information you guys bring to the table, I'm going to check out the DIY in 2nd Gen as well? You wouldn't happen to have the link readily accessible would you? If not, I'll find it. Thanks.
