Upholstery & Fabric Repair Kit Instructions
Always make a practice repair on a fabric sample before making an actual repair.
PREPARE THE SURFACE
Clean the damaged area with household cleaner. Trim any loose threads. If padding is missing beneath the damaged area and the area is depressed, spread cotton balls or cotton batting evenly under the damage to build it back up.
MATCH YOUR COLOR
Using the color match guide, pour the desired combination of colors into the empty mixing container. Shake the container 30-45 seconds to blend the fibers. Repeat as necessary until you have achieved your color match.
PEFORM THE REPAIR
Cut the enclosed piece of backing fabric so that it is slightly larger than the damaged area. Insert the fabric into the damage and arrange so that it covers the damaged area from the inside.
Using the spatula, apply the clear dry adhesive onto the damaged spot. Fill the damage as evenly as possible, covering it entirely. Rinse the spatula with clean water after completing this step. You will need a clean, dry spatula for step #3. For best results, allow to dry before proceeding to the next step.
Apply a thin layer of clear dry adhesive to the area to be repaired. Using the spatula, scoop up a small amount of mixed fibers, and slowly and evenly slide them off onto the adhesive, using a finger. Do NOT touch the adhesive with the spatula. Cover the adhesive completely with the fabric fibers.
Use the spatula to pack the fibers down into the damage, and to duplicate any patterns in the fabric. Allow several hours to dry before blowing off any excess fibers.
If the repair is not as blended as you would like, repeat step 3, and immediately apply the fabric fibers. Blow off excess fibers, and allow to dry.

| Q: Do these kits really work?
A: Absolutely! Our repair compound is specially formulated to produce the best possible results for the home user. For best results, we highly recommend you practice doing several repairs using the provided test piece of vinyl before trying the actual repair.
Q: Is it hard to match the colors in the kit to my leather or vinyl material?
A: As with any DIY project, practice makes perfect. The more you practice before attempting the actual repair, the better your results are likely to be. We've included a comprehensive color matching guide with every kit to help guide you to a near-perfect color match. However, the final match is up to you. Once you think you have your best possible match, we recommend you apply it to a small, inconspicuous area of the material you need to repair. For example, the underside of a leather couch cushion, or the inside leather overlap of a leather jacket. Testing your color match first in this way will help ensure you're satisfied with your color match on the actual repair.
Q: Are these the same kits that I've seen on As-Seen-On-TV Commercials for years? Are they made by the same manufacturer?
A: No. While our product is sold through some As-Seen-On-TV vendors, we are an independent manufacturer who has developed improved formulas for low-cost DIY repair solutions versus what has previously been available from the original "As-Seen-On-TV" manufacturer. |

We have rental houses & these repair kits are great when we need to make repairs to damaged carpets from tenants. Burn holes & small tears disappear.
Terrific investment, worth buying.
