How to Repair a Vinyl Seat or Cushion
Introduction
Got a torn vinyl seat or cushion in your vehicle, boat or home? Vinyl seat repair is often considered difficult, with most DIYers opting for complete reupholstery instead. For small nicks and tears in your vinyl, there's an easier way — buying an easy-to-use vinyl repair kit.
The kit I'm using here comes with everything needed to seal small tears. With this kit, you can make your vinyl look almost new (unless you look really closely), and just as functional as ever.
