Need a little help:
I have a older, but good shape white full tonneau top and want to go black w/ it.
Any help w/ the type of dye to use and the how to apply would be great.
It is a stayfast type of material.
Thanks in advance,
Dale

I would send it to a dye shop. There are places that will dye your items for like $15. per pound plus a fee of like $50. Google fabric dye.I would use a pro because of uniformity, color-fastness and bleed out
Spray carpet dyes have worked for me on fabric.
On carpets, they won't do a complete color change but they do give older carpets a fresh look. I've used SEM brand vinyl dyes for carpets.
If it has not been treated,it should not be a problem to dye a white item black.

Looks like it would be $100 to dye it then. For another $50-100 you could probably get a new one made. All the vinyl dye say "not for fabrics" and the stayfast stuff is like fabric and rubber. Think I'd sell the one you don't like andhave a new one made in color you want. This Ragg-Top stuff is what a friend of mine uses on his BMW's top.
