Try these www.liquidleather.com

I believe they stock standard Rover colours, I had Sandstone from them and was well pleased, being local I dropped in and they used a head rest for a match.

Hello Michael

I am pretty sure I might have some Ash Grey and Smokestone dye in the shed, it was originally purchased from Stubie when I used to have my Rover 75 and although partly used there is some left as well as the apllicator sponges, it all depends on how much you need.

You are welcome to have these free if charge as long as I can find them in the shed, I will have a look for you tomorrow.

If you are going to the Pride Of Longbridge I would be anle to pass the dye onto you there.

Regards

Clyde

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.
