WANTED - PREF FREE OR BORROW

Lyn from Levin

Am trying to restore an item made of leather that is dark brown. It has an area of fading that is too light for the body of the piece.

I have tried to find the good Kiwi polish in dark brown - but basically only one shade of the colour is available and most of it is c r a p ................. If you have an older kit with darker brown in it - even if I could borrow and return it - it is to cover about 24 square cm so wouldn't make a big hole in your nugget if you have some.

Kindly email me at: lyninlevin@xtra.co.nz if you can help.

Thanks
Lyn
