How well did it work Mark?
Any updates on the longevity and wear?
Got a couple of things I need to recolour and curious to know it’s success rate.

When you order the Vinyl Paint also get some of their Vinylprep .. wipe this stuff over the material before painting and this preparation leaves a tacky surface that helps the top coat to key .. worked for me on several differing makes of Leather Seats & a Mk1 & Mk3 Headlining.

Not sure if its the same company - new name, new location - but I've used a "Vinylkote" paint from Bradleys in Stowmarket with excellent results.

Same stuff. Kolorbond make the Vinylkote Formula 40.

Have a vinylcoat rear seat back that was green, cleaned it with their prep stuff, dusted it in white before painting it red... still looks good nearly 30 years later
