Shame how cheap the Zed's Are Selling

a tip
just clean the seats, damp cloth give it a good whipe, let it dry then get a paint brush (a good one u dont want bits of brush on ure seats) then apply it, side to side strokes, i.e same action across the seats at first it doesnt look perfect as u tend to see the strokes but once it dries the strokes signs go away and ure left with perfect lookin seats
