You don't. If you're buying from liquid leather, you just put in the description off their colour chart (90's Honda dark grey, or whatever it was - I forget exactly now). You'll get three bottles in the scuffmaster kit, which enable you to adjust the tint (because each set of leather will be slightly different allowing for age) but I didn't bother and just used it as it came out of the pot.

Thanks Iain!
Got another quote to repair will be £100.
The repairer needed the colour code to match thats all
Cheers

Ah right.
That's a PITA then.
I couldn't track down a code for the leather seats, myself. I think they only offered leather in the one colour on the lude, so I guess no need for a colour code!

So the leather repairer can't get a range of swatches and match by eye?

Most people can't do jobby without a code to tell them what it is they're doing.

On one of the sites that Laura is currently managing, the builders fitted mismatching coloured doors inside of the houses. When she called them on it, they argued that nobody had told them the doors had to be the same wood and finish throughout each house
