Finally don't forget to use a hair dryer because that evens out the liquid when drying and makes the job quicker  |
Thank you for contributing to the thread with useful and specialist knowledge. What's your opinion about Gliptone Scuff Master Dyes?
Here is a post I wrote up in 2010....

I will probably end up doing the whole wheel.
I picked up enough for 12 months and so was a good deal. He is the nearest supplier to where I am in north london. He is on ebay and told me he also sells those air fresheners which give off the smell of new leather. I did not bother with those. I had a leisurely drive back. My mate who came with me has had to drive back to the supplier this afternoon as the smokestone colour dye he bought, turned out not to be the right shade for his 75. What bad luck!
