That would be Mr Wiley, purveyor of all kinds of interesting substances, primarily for export to Africa. He has supplied me with many interesting things over the years.

 

An alternative is RK & J Jones, trading as Bird Brand. If you have a legitimate use for it they still do dark brown and, my favourite, jet black (with extra coal tar):

Liver Grease is no longer. We managed to "rescue" if not the last, then the nearly last, of the stock. Norfolk Street is now looking a lot different which is a sad affair.

 

It was nice to carry it out by boat, although it did involve wheelbarrowing it up the dock road to Salthouse to get it loaded :)
