Tromly, because of the paint fumes ( our hot water heater is NG and in the garage (stupid, but that's the way it is in AZ)..I painted outside, but in the shade..was about 68 degrees, and a little bit of wind, which is why I masked everything.....the most important part of this is to take your time, sand, wait to dry, and then move to the next step...Bob

Just 1 more Q be4 i attempt
Well today was an afternoon well spent for Bob.. attached are photos of the before and after results of the seat sanding, taking off the old color, and respraying of his SC, which ad been done before by a professional, but subsequently had cracked . Also the color started to wear off, showing a yellowing of the leather surface.
We are very happy with the results! I think Bob has a new calling..leather repair!

I wonder if this could be used on the headliner panel. Even though I have a Camel interior, the headliner is black. I'd like to have it lighter in the cabin and Lexus quoted me $3200 to change the interior black parts including the lights, sun visors, etc.. Not happening. Hmmmmm.

tromly, the outside tep.. does make a difference. Its best to use sems in tep.. above 65 degrees. A lot us with 1st gen.. sc have been using sems for a while. 76210guy, you can use it on the headliner but it might be less headache to buy a used tan one from taprecycling.com
