(lemme know if you plan to go this route as im researching this option as well. Cliff Andrews 10854 >> Just a note on refinishing vinyl. I used a spray can product for auto interiors that I purchased at KMart to change the color of a chair seat over ten years ago. The chair has been used as a prop for hundreds of portrait clients and the seat still looks like new. The rest of the chair has been repainted (chipping) many times, but the vinyl still looks great. I don't know the name of the product or if it's still available, but it sure was durable! Burke
