On a few padded interior pieces, the black padded vinyl items, I have some small splits/cracks and wonder how these can be repaired to look good.
I was thinking of filling in the cracks with black paintable silicon and then painting the whole piece with black rubberized bumper paint but wondered if others had a better idea. thanks for suggestions |

I've had some success with this kit. Just repaired a center console with it. Just take your time and be patient.

QUOTE(Dion @ Jan 6 2016, 08:44 AM)  I've had some success with this kit. Just repaired a center console with it. Just take your time and be patient. Link: http://www.eastwood.com/vinyl-and-dashboar...CFYEmHwodyiEHcg I use that kit too. The tuff part is getting the color right. But it is not paint and does not dry until it gets heat, so you can, as mentioned above, TAKE YOUR TIME. And then there is the grain to match.... Remember that the color should be sealing the rip or filling the divot. Don't use too much or you will have a thick spot. |
