    I think you can buy it from Halfords. Failing that I seem to remember B&Q stocking spray paint and related stuff, so you could try there.

    Its not plasticoat but you might find it useful, someone posted this very link not long back was looking for some myself... so I'll repost it.

    http://www.usauto.co.uk/ seek the "Penetrating Color Dye"

    "VHT PENETRATING COLOR DYE for vinyl and short nap carpet is a unique one-step dye that restores and/or changes the color of vinyl surfaces and low pile carpets. Ideal for use on stiff or pliable vinyl, tanned leather, plastic and short nap carpets. Will not change the texture or flexibility of the application."

    Most car modding shops will sell it, I think foliatec is the most well known brand. try Demon Tweeks and look for interior colour spray, for hard plastics it sells a primer (which I'm not sure if you'd need). I must admit I've never tried it myself though :lol:
