What paint do you guys recommend?
I used clothes dye on mine , dumped two packages in and used very hot water . they came out good
I bet it is not as expensive as seats...................LOL
Rit Dye will work very well to recolor your seat belts. I did it with a pair that I had and they came out fine.
I assume you meant painting the webbing material. If the purchase of new webbing is not possible, You could try SEM Color Coat paint. It is specifically designed for plastic and other interior materials. However, is buying the webbing and sewing up your own a possibility. I bought webbing, took the old ones apart carefully for patterns, and sewed up my own on the wife's sewing machine. I used the same type of thread, so I know they are PLENTY strong. I did the whole thing in one day.
Wouldn't dye or any chemical compromise the integrity of the belt? I know that with baby car seats, you're NEVER supposed to do anything like this or even wash them in a washing machine.
RIT dye worked awesome for me and penetrated excellent from red to black.
you do know that you just cooked cotton or rayon thread and weakened it where it was sewn together? I hope those seat belts never need to be used since they are compromised. not knocking your choice but it is dangerous. I work at a trimmers shop that does custom interiors for Lincolns and he just shudders when customers tell him they have done that. Most of the times he turns down the job after that statement.Rit Dye will work very well to recolor your seat belts. I did it with a pair that I had and they came out fine.
Decided the spray dye works better, and not totally convinced the RIT would compromise the belts either.you do know that you just cooked cotton or rayon thread and weakened it where it was sewn together?
