"I picked up two sections of FAA-approved vinyl fabric ... I'm not a chemist or a professional upholstery person, but I do know when a product is easy to use ... I pulled, scrunched, jumped on, beat them on the ground, tied them in knots and gave them enough punishment to replicate many years of being in use in an aircraft - even in the luggage compartment. Both pieces of aircraft-approved vinyl still looked brand new (not a scratch, not a chip)... One of my pilot friends, after he saw the successful tests I'd made with the product, said he'd be doing over the interior of his classic taildragger in the same color. Colorbond really works!"

"Colorbond dries to the tough in 45 seconds and is fully cured within 10 minutes. Sure enough we could paw the coating without disturbing it almost immediately after application. The best results are obtained by using steady, overlapping strokes ... Even after several coats, the original grain pattern of the seatback is still clearly visible. The cushion, which had been previously recovered with non-OE smooth vinyl, took the coating without runs or sags. ... We pushed, pinched, and scratched at the coating but couldn't do it harm."

-Vinyl is Final by Steve Magnante Hot Rod Magazine

"... After riding the XR in good weather and bad for nearly a month, the surface neither stained our pants nor wore off - even after numerous crashes. It shined up well after each use, showing no signs of fading or cracking - amazing!"

-Product Report Motorcycle Consumer News

"... The product is a molecular bonding component that (as its description and name imply) actually penetrates and becomes one with the molecules of material it's applied on. This means that when properly applied, Colorbond won't crack, peel, or rub off, as the color becomes part of the surface!

Too good to be true, you say? Well that's what we thought - that is, until we tried it ourselves! We tested it out on a scrap piece of leather (following the prep and application instructions), and then did our best to get it to crack, chip, or peel. Well, despite our best efforts (including a tug-o-war with the dog) we failed and Colorbond prevailed."

"... The results were excellent ... Short of Sandpapering off the surface we haven't found anything that makes the treated surface behave differently than a new piece of vinyl."
