[DMCForum] Re: More vinyl dye questions for Vixen Dave

["cruznmd" <racuti1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The door panels were lighter, but seemed to darken over 3 days.
The knee bolsters came out even lighter than the door panels did 
before they cured.

The dash is brown and I'm not using that as a comparison. The knee 
bolsters look too light compared to the door panels. They -do- seem 
to be darkening slightly but not enough.
