Remove all dirt, grease, oil, silicone, and any other contaminants. For carpets, vacuum thoroughly and use a stiff brush to lift the fibers. For hard surfaces like vinyl or plastic, a light sanding may be beneficial for improved adhesion, followed by a thorough cleaning with a tack cloth to remove any dust.Test in an Inconspicuous Area: Before full application, always test the dye on a small, hidden area of the material to confirm color accuracy and check for proper adhesion. This step helps ensure satisfaction with the final result.Shake the Can Vigorously: Shake the aerosol can vigorously for at least one minute before you begin spraying. Continue to shake periodically during application to ensure the dye remains well mixed.Apply Light, Even Coats: Hold the can approximately 10 to 12 inches away from the surface. Apply the dye in light, even coats using a consistent side-to-side motion. Overlap each pass slightly to ensure uniform coverage. Avoid applying thick, heavy coats, as this can lead to drips, runs, or a less flexible finish.Brush into Carpet Fibers (for carpet): If dyeing carpet, gently brush the dye into the fibers immediately after applying each coat. This helps to ensure even penetration and a natural appearance.Allow Drying Time Between Coats: Allow each coat to dry for a few minutes to the touch before applying subsequent layers. Typically, two to three light coats are sufficient for optimal coverage and color depth.Cure Completely: After applying the final coat, allow the product to dry and cure completely according to the manufacturer’s recommended time before touching or using the dyed surface. This ensures maximum durability and adherence.BENEFITS OF USING HI-TECH INDUSTRIES DARK GRAY VINYL, PLASTIC & CARPET DYE (HT-450):Achieve a revitalized interior appearance without the expense of full replacement.Effectively masks unsightly stains and blemishes, making surfaces look new again.Maintains the original soft feel of vinyl, plastic, and carpet materials after application.Provides a long-lasting finish that resists common wear and tear such as cracking and peeling.Simplifies interior detailing and reconditioning projects with an easy-to-use aerosol format.Environmentally considerate formulation, meeting current VOC regulations.FEATURES:Professional-grade aerosol formulation for consistent results.Adjustable “snorkel tip” for precise spray control and reduced overspray.Computer-matched color for accurate OEM restoration.Fast-drying properties for quicker project completion.Designed to adhere to vinyl, plastic, and carpet materials.Flexible coating prevents stiffening or cracking of treated surfaces.Suitable for both interior and exterior applications.Ideal for spot repairs, color changes, and full interior makeovers.
