The link posted on here didnt have pictures of the finished product. Anyone dyed there seats in a hot state like az? I dont want the seats to peel or crack and it would pretty much be maintainence if i would have to re dye them every year.

think i heard of it in the SC400 thread here or another CL member turned me on to it.
I used SEM Black Landau to spray a couple left over pieces that were once the ugly Taupe color.
Adheres really well and matches lexus interior black very well IMO

Will this product fade over time?
might be a silly question but will it get on your clothes if your sitting in the car for long periods of time or really hot weather?
