As long as my interior is disassembled, I am looking at re-dying the Ginger interior.

The June TC America Newsletter has an article on re-dying faded black but says it should work for other colors, too.

The question is, what is the best color to match Ginger?

Looking at the Rit Dye possiblities, I can't decide between Tan and Cocoa Brown.

Any suggestions? A Mixologist opinion?

Majic Carpet Dye is only good for Wool, Nylon, and Silk.

What are are carpets made of?
