Has anyone used ' bumper black ' for replenishing seat coverings ( on Black seats of course ) - or
is there something else that I should use ?

Try "Vinyl-Kote" (assuming that they are vinyl seats)

Thanks - they are original seats and pretty sure they are not ''leather''.
Do you know where I can get Vinyl Kote from ?

Make sure you remove all dirt/grease etc first.Panelwipe would be good but you'd have to go to a paint supplier or Ebay for it.At a pinch even meths would do it.I've used thinners but ideally it needs to be a warm day so it flashes straight off quickly.The idea is to give the spray the best chance of adhering to the old surface.I've used it before and its good.Don't spray it on too heavily.Maybe spray just the seat base one day and the back the next so you're keeping in control.
