Default has anyone dyed / sprayed leather ie colour change

i used to first dissmiss it but more and more ppl seem to be doing it with great results, im thinking of changine dark blue to black, 99 percent leather the other is door trims which are fake leather plasticky if know what i mean

i have spray guns and a compressor so id like to buy it in litres etc rather than spray tins


is this possible to do? have you done it? how did it last? were is the stuff bought from?

RECONOLISING
have seen allsorts of worn out crap leather rejuvenated or replaced and
sprayed the correct colour, my mate uses HMG and the result can
be amazing. he also uses that stuff that changes the colour of plastics
which does work good.
he says regards painting leather"have you ever seen a red fcuking cow"
