Larry:
I just finished re-coloring my 88 with Lotus interior using Color Plus. Use the rag method.It turned out very good. email me @ emsmith@boo.net or call @ 301-907-0324 if you have any questions

I am also considering re-coloring my interior (87M6)using Color Plus but I have some concerns about how to get the job done correctly that perhaps you can answer. First, how do you coat the parts of the leather where there is a pleat or a deep crevass in which the leather surfaces touch each other? It seems to me that this would cause the coating to stick the sides of the leather to each other. Secondly, did you spray the dye or use a brush or a rag? Third, what did you do where there are different color leather pieces sewn together? I have a Lotus interior with dark gray dash and door accents. I would like to retain the dark gray portions but I am concerned that the seam will be difficult to color properly. Thanks for your help.
