Vinyl repair

Post by rolesyboy »

I have a Rover cooper seat with a snag/tear on the edge of the seat back. It is black vinyl (not leather fronts) and I need to make an invisible repair. Does anybody have any suggested brands that they have used successfully. The snag covers and area no bigger than a 10 p piece.
I also have a cigarette burn to one of the seat squabs. Back lightning trim. I used to have a trimmer that stitched cig burns out but he is based 250 miles away. Any suggestions how I might make this disappear chaps?? Cheers

Have a look around for one of the mobile trim repairers, like the dent devil lads, but for interiors. They can work wonders.

I agree with Steve, don't attempt a repair yourself, you will inevitably make it worse. Give a mobile specialist a ring, he will charge stiff money, but it will be money well spent.
