Infiniti Q50 Red Interior - How to dye & seal leather
Check out Instagram @CRTFD_G for questions!
How to dye your leather seats red with good results will attach all links below here. Super bummed I broke my hand so won’t be able to do the front seats till the new year most likely. Get the air brush if you plan to do this! Major key is the sealant if you want it to last & not bleed. Be sure not to go too heavy w the resoline.

Was the brush better than the sponge that comes with it? Mine is delivered today and just curious if using a brush is better. And how much did you put on the brush I don’t wanna use like too much of it and run out.

with the airbrush you add some water in it right?

Nice video that red is a very good look ...just an FYI most people with Q50 think they have a premium, fact is they have a base model with navigation, which has "faux leather" seats ...ALL premium model Q50's have real leather seats, premium seats have preforated holes in the seats like the sport seats they just dont have the leg support like the sport model. Thats how you know if you have a premium or not, also cameras in side mirrors & front grille

@@CRTFD_G 100% wrong ...real premiums have real leather seats with preforated holes in them just as sport seats do (they just dont have the leg support as sport seats do) ...if your seats are smooth with no preforated holes its not real leather & its NOT a premium, premiums also have electric steering rack, 360 cameras & front & rear parking sensors ...if it dont have these options its NOT a premium ive rebuilt more than 50 salvage Q50's since 2014
