At Northumbrian Leather our Leather library extends to over 700 colours and finishes, in all types of hide. About fifteen years ago Connolly Leather developed the Monza brown hide that marks easily at the request of Alfa. Since then this style of hide has proved very popular with veteran and vintage car restorers. Here at Northumbrian Leather we stock over 30 different colours of this type of hide, so if you like the old suitcase lived in look, then this is the one for you! Whether we receive just the seats or the complete car our restoration department will first clean the leather back to its original colour, then prepare the surface with activators, applying the first coat by hand and the subsequent two or three coats by spray gun. When we are happy with the finish it will then be sealed with satin lacquer "without that just painted look".
