Hi All :)

Ok here is the result of dyeing my Momo wheel...

I forgot to take a "before" picture, but imagine the blue part as a really bleached out stone-wash jean colour where it had faded over several years...

The kit I bought was for 2 complete leather seats and included a cleaning fluid, the dye in blue and a sealer liquid and some cloths to use.

It came from here >>> http://www.woolies-trim.co.uk/c-108-fea ... ducts.aspx

Great kit and worked REALLY well, and have enough left to do about 200 more steering wheels :)

All the best Brett :)
