I've never used the paints, but there are some dyes available in spray can form. SEMS is the better know brand and it works pretty well. Fabrics really need a dye that will absorb into the threads, a paint will not become part of the flexible covering. On plastic, though SEMS works good, I've used it on Apillars and never been disappointed.

If I clean My truck do you think it is possible for Me not to have to dye My carpets and seats

Depends on how clean they come. For the effort, I would replace the carpet with Nifty's proline replacements in your choice of color rather than trying to dye it evenly.
