The dye was a household product ( like Colron, but just can't remember ) so you can do your leathers the same as your shiny bits.

Dont use wheel worx in colchester, the quality of powder coating is crap, had my heel plates, brake torque arm and some other stuff done black, and found few blobby lumps.

shame I we didnt get chatting about it when we met up at the 8ball recently.

It cost me £30 cash for quite a few bits so was quite cheap I suppose.

About 15 years ago I regularly used a chap near hadleigh in suffolk (on raydon airfield to be precise) he was very good, and is still about. Does a lot of big jobs so can pop your bits in with them.

That was my only gripe with Maldon Shotblasting the turnaround was too long and my parts didn't get do until I'd chased the order.

But not expensive and a good job
