VHT Fabric Dye

Has anyone used VHT's fabric dye to dye their seats? If so what do you think?

I've used VHT fabric dye on a motorcycle seat before but, it will eventually wear off and have to be re-applied.

I don't know about the VHT dye, but i bought some dye for my cloth seats and they came out all cool, but they are kinda hard and gritty and i don't know what to use to soften them up again. Any suggestions?

I used Mar-Hyde the re-color my 91 TA converible tan seats. The seats came out good but they are alittle hard to the touch. I would suggust doing a few light coats instead of one heavy coat. I think getting new seat covers would be better but they are impossible to find because they stopped making them.
