The stuff Stubbie had was brilliant, clean the wheel and sponge it on and lasted for ages.Did a bit of research re dyeing car leather and there appears two types of colouring leather,one is actually dyeing the leather with a dye and then coating it with a clear sealer, the other being the stuff Stubbie used which was a dye with all the sealers etc mixed in so it can be just applied all at once.
The difference being some leather is coloured by colour being absorbed into the leather and then coated with clear finish, mostly used in furniture ,the other being a hard wearing flexible coating applied to the surface of the leather mostly used in the auto industry.
I'm sure at some point Stubbie mentioned where he got his supplies from although it would be great if he got back into business as his colouring was spot on and a very good product.
