Recolouring Interior

Looking to recolour my interior and stumbled across uticolor http://www.uticolor.com.au/ don't have heaps of time to do the work myself but just wondering if anyone has come across them and if so what the work standard has been?

I have used this before and it seems to wear through quick .Ive been a upholster for 20 years it's best used to tidy up the seat by using the same colour .Recovering them is the best way

True I'm lucky I can do my own seats but other things I have to do on a budget .Just a hint wipe seats with hot water and wait a couple of minutes if You get a white colour u will need to clean again

Tape up the bits inside you don't want painted, throw a paint bomb in there, close the door and hope for the best :D
