Dyeing success, is all about prep. Through cleaning, with either Dawn or SEM soap, that’s the small blue bottle. Next is using SEM plastic prep and then Adhesive Promoter. I use the wet on Adhesive Promoter, and your first very light coat of dye goes on while it’s still wet. The dye, I don’t use SEM, they have discontinued a lot of ours colors for our trucks. After that, just very light coats of dye. I’ve seen to many times, that people dye without any sort of prepping, and if the parts have any sort of oils on the parts, that would explain it peeling that easy.
