Can’t say I have heard from anyone. I have had a couple of repeat people, having me do other sets for them, that’s good news.
I have had my belts for about 4-5 years now. They were the very first set that I had ever done, and it was almost a couple years after that, that I started doing other belts. During that time in between, I did a lot of research on the belts themselves, just trying to learn different things and the do’s and dont’s. I’m still learning a lot, and I have certainly have expanded on the cleaning techniques since my set, and some of the very first sets that I did.
And USA1 is where I get all my supplies. They are literally the only place that has all the correct colors for our trucks interior. I do use SEM as far as the prep stages of dyeing. But when it comes to dye, SEM has discontinued a lot of our colors. And with so many different shades of one particular color, I gave up on SEM when it comes to finding the right color that matches. So USA1 it is!
