Leather touch up paint

[Mutley00]

Does anyone have what I believe is classed as a 'Cream' interior, and if so, have you found a supplier of a touch-up paint with a decent colour match?

Thanks, Andrew

LTT Leather Care, or Furniture Clinic. As not a mainstream car you may need to send them a piece of leather (a 1" square from the the underside, or a headrest?) to scan, and colour match for you. I'm near to you (equidistance Mansfield/Worksop) and have restored leather for 10+ years, if you need a talk through what to do.

Thanks for the offer Fermt, but its just the odd scuff I'd like to touch up, rather than a full 're-cover'.

Magnolia? should tell you in the owners handbook. I used furniture clinic stuff. It's not a simple touch up, theres the clean, colour, seal and top coat (matt, satin, shiney) to do for a proper job, else you end up with the sticky feel of a post it note

You only end up with sticky pigment if there is grease contamination (sweat) on the leather. The process, if done properly is fairly simple. Prep the area with acetone and spray on thin pigment coats. FC do use a separate finish, but many pigments have cross link added to cure and stabilise it.

This should help.
