Does Dynamix have a website or contact info? Your interior looks fantastic and I might as well recover a set of Cashmere seats I have in the garage...

I have been thinking more about this job and decided that I'm going to use a sponge roller for the next seat. With the first seat I just wiped it on with a sponge and dabbed it to get rid of the smear marks. It worked well, but I found it to be blotchy up until the last two layers. I suspect that I will use more product with a roller, but hopefully get a more consistent coverage, especially in the larger areas. Another suggestion for people planning on attempting this, work in very good light, preferrably sunlight. When I did this it was overcast and yesterday in broad sunlight I spotted a few tiny areas where I have missed, particularly in the creases and right next to the piping. It is not obvious until you view it in harsh light. That's when the slight colour difference shows up. So, it seems another layer will be required.

Frans, I had a similar experience with my color. Nothing another coat won't take care of.
I used colorplus here in the States. No affiliation. www.colorplus.com Great service there also, they even matched my color.
It has held up very well. As I understand it, this is how leather is colored to start with.... so it holds up as well as any colored leather, assuming it is prepped well.
I have even had to clean off some nasty glue that the convertible top guy got on them and grime from the paint shop guy
The color has taken the abuse well.
I used a foam brush to put it on, using random strokes.

just got a colorplus kit and i'm about to do the same - how big of a foam brush did you use? how many layers did you end up using?
