Dyeing seatbelts???

[budnate]

Ok guys, my belts are nice but the Cal sun got'em, I talked to the guy up in BC that is always selling belts on e-bay but wouldnt let on how did his belts so nice, he did say he runs them through his dish washer after coloring them with the buckles wraped in plastic,ever heard of that??, claimed his upholstery guy did them for him?? uhaa, Any place I can read step by step how to do a decent job on them, with out pulling the buckles off of them, also concerned with the date tags not getting messed up in the process, going back fresh black.

Thnx for any help, Bud.
