I tried Supercheap and they had Sepatone Black, but no tan. Bunnings - no go either...

I have a 1976 Mini S brown interior and I need to replace the rear parcel tray liner. i bought a NOS RED from Mini King and want to change the colour of course but cannot seem to locate a suitable matching vinyl spray apck paint.

Most grateful for any ideas please :?:

Next Time You are Up here I will show You some samples of trim that I still have in rolls from the factory, with a little luck we may be able to match Your colour,
Or Post Me a small sample of the trim You are looking for ( Cut from under the seat or some place ) and I will try to match it for You
Regards
John

A few years back I found a guy that did car interior and furniture (vinyle and leather chairs) repairs. He colour matched the vinyl paint for my roof lining. Top product.
This was using an acrylic product - now he only does the water base which is crap in comparison.

I managed to get VHT vinyl dye from my local Autobarn and they just charged me the cost of the can....no ordering fee like the others...

That stuff works well....

Thanks John. I'm going away briefly. I'll see if I can get a sample to Dave to bring over when he comes for his collect with you. If time doesnt work, we will get something rolling :D

Thanks also to Bill, Ian and Indigo for the comments.

Bill - I recognise that colour but in this case its the darker brown interior. Maybe SCheap can do the darker colour :?: :?:

Speatone advised the Ford story: Select any colour and they'll be pleased to sell you black

If JS cannot match the fabric, the Ian/Autobarn seems worthy of pursuing.

Thx & Cheers
Wayne :D
