Colouring vinyl

[Elessar]

10 years ago I was renovating an old mobo that had pink vinyl inside.

I bought a product that wasn't paint, in sank into the surface and changed the colour. It didn't crack, showed all the grain, perfectly even colour, a nice sheen but not shiny - it was absolutely perfect.

Pink became navy at a fraction of the re upholstery cost. People simply didn't believe it was sprayed on.

Now I need some more. White this time. Or come to think of it navy would do. Cant remember what it was called or if it is still available.

Ideas anyone?

This any good. Not used it, so no recommendation.

Thanks both. Neither was what I used but both sound like it from the description. Photos and a description to follow once I've tried it.

Thanks again

Formula 40 paint for vynil.Blakes paint sold it for a while .Dont know if its still available now, but it was surprisingly good as a product for colouring fabrics that could not be dyed.
