Anybody use this place?

I have a three spoke leather Toronado steering wheel I need to be dyed to match my interior.

 

Here is the colour of my interior.

Go to your local automotive supply house NAPA, etc.. and buy a can of spray dye for leather, when properly degreased and cleaned, this stuff will work wonders. Have done many over time. If you don't feel confident with that look around your area for an Upholstery shop , the majority of them also offer this sort of service.... Fibre Renew is one such franchise...http://www.fibrenew.com/ottawa/
Good luck,
Chris.

I just got done painting a 51 Merc steering wheel base/clear black looked great. But don't think that helps with the newer wheels.
Good luck

I have painted the 60s plastic wheels but used a cover over the rim so the paint wouldnt get worn off. I dont know if it would have or not.
With that much handling, I would imagine any paint or dye is going to wear through.

Check out leatherique.com.
Their products are top notch and there's a Canadian distributor in Niagara on the Lake.
