can you dye cloth seats? and what products are out there.

I have a set of grey cloth seats i want to be plain black, i thought about Auto Glym carpet dye but that leaves a crispy feel to the carpets so it would probably stuff the seats.

Any ideas. I need a dye that will be non transferable to clothes obviously

the seats i have i can remove the cloth covers so i could wash them in a machine with a desired dye, i just need to know if whatever dye is out there isn't going to transfer to clothes. thanks for the input though mate.

i emailed a guy on ebay and he said the seats have to be wool or nylon, now i know they aren't wool but as for nylon i havent a clue, owuld there be a label on one of the covers? like a jumper LOL or don't seats carry this sort of thing? i doubt they are nylon though, just normal cloth. the seats are recaros from a ford escort
