bunnyman666 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 I know that so many times, people of tried without much success to paint pads and other gear. Well, I think I may have found the magic bullet. Enter paint that is meant to be on car seats. Yes, most car seats are not Drum dyed, unless we are talking a HIGH DOLLAR luxury car, such as a Rolls Royce, or Bugatti. I will, of course, tested on pads I don’t care about. I won’t ruin a pair of pads that I like. stay tuned… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angeles paints work pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MangoRhinehart Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 How it go with painting? I covered up a few wear spots on a blocker with Angelus and the results were good, took a puck directly to it and no issues. Color match isnt exact but close enough.
