I am changing the interior from white to black. The front door cards were back so I ordered some new ones in black. The rear cards were fine just need to be changed to black. I bought some dye off the net and tested it on an arm rest. Here is the result:

I used their foam applicator for the first coat and a gloved hand for the second coat. The stuff is paste like and I could have wiped it a little smoother but this was only a test, as the arm rest is junk. Worked well enough that I will now use it on my rear cards. NOTE: It has been a day, a very humid day, and there is a slight tackiness to the finish. The directions address this but I am not worried about that at all. Anyway, just thought I would pass the info on.
 

Nice review thanks. I have some white armrests for my D100 that need to be blue. Any link to their page?
 
Looks good! I also used SEM in the spray cans and it's good too. Interesting that's a recoloring balm.

Who told you to put a balm on? Do you know what a balm is? Have you ever seen a balm? Did you read the instructions? No one can tell what a balm's gonna do. They're unpredictable!

Sorry, certain words trigger my brain, which is stuck somewhere in a Seinfeld episode most of the time.
