3M Leather and Vinyl Repair Kit

Had a 3/4" cut in a motorcycle seat. Used the kit to reinforce under the vinyl and then glue it back together. Then filled with the color mix and grain paper. I did not have high hopes but figured it would at least keep it from tearing from the cut. I was very surprised at the finish. The texture is slightly off but you have to know it was there and really look for it to see where it was. The color was black so matching was easy.

​I bought this to fix a cut in the Navy Beige leather seats of my 2022 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy. Since the Calligraphy has that nice light interior I was honestly stressed about making it look worse with a bad color match. ​The coolest part was how I figured out the color. I took a picture of the different shades in the kit next to my seat and put it into an AI. I asked it exactly how to mix them to get the right shade and the advice was completely spot on. The beige blended in so well you can barely tell where the cut was. It fills the spot smoothly without leaving a weird shiny or rough patch on the leather. ​The dealership and local repair shops wanted crazy money to fix this so this kit saved me a ton of cash. It does take some patience to mix it up and apply it but using AI to get the color ratio eliminated all the guesswork. If you have the light beige interior and are worried about ruining it just use AI to help you mix the colors. It works great.

I was surprised that one needs an iron when using the kit. I have not owned an iron for many years now, but I was able to substitute a hotplate. I only used the black color so I do not know how well other colors would match. Grateful to have this product available to repair my vinyl seat.

I used this product in the past and the repairs lasted for a couple years. The leftover product dried up, so I purchased a new kit. The jar of green colorant had opened in the package and made a bit of a mess, however, I didn't need that color and it didn't affect the adhesive or the colorant I did need.....it just made a mess, so I docked the review a star. I wasn't able to create an exact match to the color and texture of the seat I was repairing, but it was close enough for me. The repair did stop the tears from continuing to grow.

Not sure how to use at first. Instructions a little vague. But it worked ok after getting hang of it. Had a couple tears to repair in car seat. For amateur, thought it came out ok

The contents didn't match what was in the instructions. There was supposed to be a liquid adhesive included. Instead there was a powder substance. No instructions on what to mix the powder with to create an adhesive (if that was what they intended). I went to the 3-M site looking for help. Nothing in the FAQ's about this. I asked for help in the Contact Us section but they never responded. I ended up purchasing a separate fabric adhesive and only used the color paints provided.

I bought this because this is 3M. I usually like their products. This is a no go. The idea is cute and they give you everything, but it was just a big mess on my car seat. Glad I was able to wash off the paint. I am back where i started from. Well no, I am out the money I spent on this product. I guess I will just end up putting a piece of matching tape on my car seat.

I have used other, similarly priced leather repair kits with great success. We bought this because it had the color I needed. It was much more involved to use, and the repair lasted less than a week.

I bought this to repair a small vynil chair. Application was tedious, very hard to manouver, took a few days to dry and it came off withing a week of use.

I applied this leather repair paste and let it dry. After sanding, the repaired area started peeling off. I followed the instructions carefully, but the result was disappointing.
