    Just FYI, never point a heat gun so close to your car seat or anything except what you intend to heat.

    I know this is now a older video but I thought this cheaper repair kit did a respectable job with a seat that has normal wear anyways. Only thing I thought about if more time was taken smoothing and feathering the application it would of came out even better. Also probably started with several finer coats. Still not to shabby.

    Thanks for the content! It came out pretty good! However, I think that you could have spent just a little more time mixing the kit's colors to match a little darker. Even if you mixed just a little more brown into what you mixed, your die would have covered it more easily. The other important information that I gained from your video was that this Pernatx kit includes about same materials as the more expensive 3M leather & vinyl repair kit, including the backing material sheet as well as 3 different texture sheets. 😊

I've had this product for a few years and the written instructions were confusing so I haven't used it and the hole in the seat is getting bigger. You don't need to be dismissive, it's not nice.

    Ummm the glue as you called it is the filler material. You didn't quit do it properly and the color you came out with is way off.. yes you can match color exactly you just need to mix it with more. Also cardboard absorbs this kind of stuff so your losing a lot of material.

    you did it wrong, you werent supposed to heat up the first adhesive, you were supposed to heat up the dye adhesive, its to create a texture

      He only uses heat for the final color material, just like the instructions say. He never heats the first adhesive. He lets it dry overnight.

    I guess compering initial amount of white and brown your "small amount of yellow" and "very small ... black" should be appropriately bigger.

      you use the color guide to mix up a match. I have leather dye, so I just got it a generic tax color and then used my dye to match the seats. I bought a dye online using the GM color code
