Sealing the dye
Hi Poppy,
Great looking job on your interior!! Do you apply Stubie's dye with the little sponge he provides (dabbing it on?) and then what product did you seal the leather dye with? Cheers Paul |

I am back in the UK and wondered if you had any luck in sorting out the dye separation of the neptune blue? No sign here of sample you mentioned. Do you have any thoughts? |

The dye and the applicators arrived this morning and I shall wait until the weather is cooler to apply. Cheers Stubie

Mine took about 5 coats, looked like new when finished. Well worth putting in the effort.

No I completed 4 coats quite soon, it dries very quickly, I did mine when warm and sunny. Applied a final coat the following day, then about 3 months in whilst still on the car I topped it up with another coat.
