1968 Seat Belt Dye

[Mosesatm]

What product works well for sprucing up black seatbelts? Will Back-to-Black, or similar products for exterior trim work?

Thanks

Are you talking about Mother's Back to Black? If so, I don't think I would want to use it on seat belts. I think it would rub off on your clothing. What about regular cloth dye?

BTW...I assume that because you mentioned "dye" you are talking about the fabric part of the seat belts.

Yes, the webbing. I scrubbed the shoulder belts and they seem to have been blue at one time.

Has anyone used this stuff?

I use clothing dye. In really hot water then rinse with cold to set the dye. I have never had it come off on me.

Did you use Rit, or something else?

I went to the dreaded fabric store and found the Rit. It works wonders on black belts. Marty

Hey Arlie, You didn't accidently get a blood tranfusion of "Wookie" blood did you. Your Avitar mug shot looks a little rugged. LOL
