Foliatec is a company who sell hard and soft plastic spray, I have used it on a chair in the tattoo studio to great effect - after 6 months of constant use it started to wear a bit but we use serious cleaning chemicals constantly and the chair is in use at least 6 hours every day 6 days a week. In a car this stuff would last forever!!

You need the primer, colour spray and sealer, and you must work fairly quickly but the colour is bright and very hard wearing.

Foliatec.com

Don;t buy from Demon tweeks they sell the small size for silly money!!

I have a large matt black and I think yellow and a little primer, sealer???

Hes put a lot on for the wheel and is holding up well so far, only done the 9 and 3 positions as thats where the leather was worn.
