Vinyl Repair
« on: July 19, 2005 - 06:42:48 PM »
Has anyone tried any of the vinyl repair kits on the market.  Anything with "As Seen on TV" on the package makes me leery.  Pixie has one small hole on each of her door panels...the only flaw.  I would hate to spend a lot of money on replacing them if one of these kits would work.

Thanks for your help.

My wife bought me one of those kits for Christmas as a stocking stuffer but I haven`t tried it yet.

I had a hole in my door panel on the drivers side! it was about the size of a quarter!! i bought some of that vinyl repair kit that you get at auto zone or advance! it comes with color a patch and the glue it works ok if you paint/stain over them!! It worked well enough for me of course my car is not a show car or nothing! il try to get you a pic of it so you can see for yourself on how it turned out!

That would be great if you could get a pic.  We plan on dying them anyway, so maybe this will work out.  Could save us a couple hundred bucks!
