Try here http://www.herbsparts.com they claim it won't fade or crack and they have 31 Mopar colors. If you try it let us know how it works.

Good Luck Ernie

my lincoln is nothing BUT vinyl dye/paint

the best advice I can give is: wash EVERY inch with warm soapy water. My favorite is simple green, but pick your poison. dish soap can work.

after you wash/rinse and dry, spray VERY light coats of the paint/dye. You DON'T want full coverage first spray. The door panels/ dash/ seat and misc interior pieces of the lincoln have been sprayed for 10 years, and still look great.

good luck

half of the stuff I used was duplicolor, but the most recent stuff is SEM. Your local paint shop should carry the stuff. I believe it is the same stuff eastwood sells

SEM is the best, You can get it at shops that sell supplies to bodyshops or upholstery shops.

I did the dash and arm rests on the Crew with SEMs paint. It isn't a dye, but it is highly flexible,
and wears really well! They recommend an adhesion promoter underneath for best results.
Bulldog makes one of the best, but I think I used Duplicolors.
