I may be missing a thread from the forum here, so forgive me if I have.

I'm considering dyeing my leather interior, ie the seats and panels. All are in good physical condition, but have some fading due to the sun. I'm thinking of changing the color some too.
I've looked at VHT penetrating dyes, but no one can tell me if it's FAA approved.

I also want to re-paint the plastic trim pcs. What are people using that is FAA approved? these are flexible pcs. as we know, so isn't some flexor needed in a paint? I know I'll need to prep and clean everything beforehand.

I'm doing quite a lot on the plane right now, but before I put it all back together, I'm considering these changes.
