what paint to use on Toupe+

I want to paint the grey plastic bits red on the saddle, was wondering what paint i need to use without the paint fading under usage.

also i want to paint shiny lines in the leather/material of the saddle red. I am not sure what those are made of, i guess i need Dylon for that?

Leave alone unless you want to make it look like it's worth 50p - the grey bits will likely be some sort of polyamide blend that paint won't stick too. The shiny lines are a heat-applied transfer - any sort of dye / paint will probably flake off

Damn...that's annoying. Guess as long as I am on it, I won't care much

You can't ask Frankie Howard, Wogan is still around though!

But seriously, just leave it.

Or just take the grey plastic bit off? It looks much better with them off, and they don't seem to serve much of a purpose as far as I can tell.
