Gosh Poppy,

The interior of your car looks pristine with the lighting effects. Nicely done, warm and inviting. Good result. Do keep the car!

Yes Rich here in Peterborough had the same result recently and I apologize, when I got the dye early last year for a member I send away the arm cap for a sample and the member who got the original dye was happy with it.
Perhaps the dye has separated a bit.
Send me you address and I will send you a small sample of black to darken the neptune blue.

Thanks Stubie for getting back and for the suggestion. I will pm my address in the UK. I am back in London mid July and from experience your dyes are the best. The steering wheel on the CDTi I restored with the smokestone came out perfect. Made it look new.

That is really very kind of you to offer to do that Stubie, above and beyond what I would expect. Besides, the car - the V6 is in London being looked after by a fellow member who is also a good mate until I return. I will p.m the address.

from my experience if left for a while it does seperate but on the all other colours apart from the problem with the blue a good shake and a warm up should get it back to it's right mix.

Stubie,

Would very much like some Deep Sea Green dye if you've got it. Need to touch up my steering wheel.
