painting the cloth interior

i found that spry apinting leaves the cloth interior feeling gross and crusty
I found that arylic craft paint works wonders it a pain to apply (with a brush)and kinda expensive butt is the best way i have found to cover up smoking and dirt on the cloth parts of your car.

there are dozens of different brands of upholstery dye made specifically for this purpose. they're easy to apply and don't leave you covered in pretty colors.

Any other method should be considered only if you want to ruin your interior and then only after smoking a crack pipe for about 4 hours.
