Yes it was a satin black, but was just an all purpose spray, if I used them at all I’d have clear coated them for durability but they never get touched so should be fine..

Today I’ve fitted seat Leon fr seats on Touran bases, pretty strait forward. I wanted some Audi TT or golf gti seats really but for £100 they will do for now

Cheers, by any chance was this the Autoglym Black Dye Spray Can 450m ? I don't want to order too many cans.

That’s the one I used, only 150ml cans but if I’d seen the autoglym one when I was looking I’d have got that 🤦🏼‍♂️

The van at the moment.

Things left to do after the house move (so minimal progress for a few months at least)

New Bumpers, wing mirrors colour coded, side rail covers, both sides and rear doors resprayed, laminate floor the rear, lower the rear suspension a tad more, gti carriers and bigger disks on the rear and a nice steering wheel.
