Leather lacquer (sealant)

this is a matt but has an ever so slight sheen to it.

this one may be the same as above, or it may be a pure matt (I haven't tried it). Personally I apply a water based PU lacquer on top of the above solvent one from Buffalo - for that pure matt dull finish that looks best, but you can only buy it trade which is why it may be worth trying this one...
Leather dye

I don't know what his 'dyes' are like (it's a pigment colour i.e. leather paint, as opposed to a dye, even he gets it wrong but that's ok
). Alternatively if you can get a sample of the leather and send it to either Buffalo Leather or Furniture Clinic they will match it 100% and send back the pigment in a bottle (it can be a small piece). They are very helpful over the phone.

blue ones are best!
Like all leather repairs, do light coats - not heavy ones. Let us know how you get on.

p.s.
to have a genuine leather smell, simply spray this onto your car mats:
(it's awsome stuff)

Hi Kev,
was thrilled by Stubis leather color!
Can you also offer small color bottles for Rover75 (smokestone and NeptunBlueblue) which fit well in color?
