Leather paint?

[Geemsee]

Does anyone know where you can get leather or upholstery paint from in NZ ?

Basically, its for a set of one piece leathers and i'm feeling a bit artistic at the moment and want to paint some logos etc!!

Wouldn't acrylic paint do the job (provided the surface was properly prepared)?

Friend of mine used acrylic roof paint and moisturiser mix to paint her leathers.
Seemed to work...

Yeah it did but man they smelt funny :)

Oil based paint worked for me. Cracked a little on larger areas, but still looked OK

This is what most shoe repairers etc recommend: http://www.stepout.co.nz/products/paints-and-dyes/shoe-dyes/WaprooShoePaint/

You should be able to get it from any decent shoe repair shop (or a similar product) and maybe bigger shoe shops. I guess it might be a bit of an issue if you want to cover bigger areas though (not sure how big a container of it you can get).

Thanks, this looks like the sort of stuff I need but the colours aren't what i'm after, have to look elsewhere I think!?
