Is that sprayed? I had a pair of black sunvisors out of an Astra cabriolet that'd go well.

Phil I use this paint on carpets in the vans at work, it will eventually fade so is no good for household carpets, how often do you touch your headlining though? That won't fade wink

There is dye you can get but it proves expensive and the fumes are very toxic.

lol. I was only joking about my house carpet.

I rarely touch my headling... however my mate spiderman I can't keep him off it!

Cheers Ste - a tip I shall remember but probably never put into practice!
