I have used such services before, for vinyl seat repair. The benefit of these folks in this instance is that they use airbrushes to apply vinyl dye, for a smooth lap free end result. Cost was very reasonable as I recall, finish was perfect, and I had no problems with it lasting for as long as I owned the car. These services generally are unknown to the public, because their customers are almost exclusively dealers.

If you want to give it a try ask around at dealerships who they use for vinyl repair and dye.
Thank you for the info! I found a product that will color/restore leather and vinyl.

A few reviews had to do with corbin seats and leather couches and boat seats which I guess are made of vinyl. 25$ on Amazon

I am hitting 1 of my Wilson Leather riding jackets as the leather started bleaching already. It has a reflective piping on it thay I think I am going to hit with the black to see how it works before I go and hit the seat.

I'm thinking it's faster to dye the piping black than to try and sell it. Probably gonna wait a few days to see how the jacket turns out after drying before I do the seat.

Great video, didn't realize I should condition after the jacket gets wet.

They use the same restoring balm in the video that I just bought.
