Default Interior leather dye

Anyone know where i can get really good leather dye to match vette colors. The Texas sun has done a number on the top of my steering wheel, and the outside bolster on the drivers side looks pretty scuffed. Want to use something good.

Corvette Central or Contemporary Corvette is where I got some Carmine Red for my 85 and it matched perfectly.

Try leatherique I believe they have a dye.. This is one of the best leather cleaner and conditioner companies out there.. Run a search for them.. Alot of people on the forum swear by them.

Hold everything on the Leatherique. I change my seat color from Blue to Graphite with their dye, I am having problems.

Barrier, I was sent the wrong color by Leatherique but it worked fine. When they sent the correct color, that also worked fine. You must follow all the directions, and allow plenty of time between steps. Leatherique is not something you can just paint on and be done, but I am happy with the results I got.
