Plasti Dip VLP Clear Vinyl Repair – 1oz Tube (61Z09) – Flexible Adhesive Sealant for Vinyl & Leather Repair – Transparent Finish

Product is of a thin consistency and comes out of tube with minimal pressure. Be careful when applying or you’ll end up with more product then you expected. The product dries pretty quickly (30 min. ?). The used this product to seal a crack in a automotive padded vinyl armrest. The VLP dries to form a clear but shiny patch over the crack. A little dupli-color vinyl spray paint took care of the shine. There is still a dimple where the repair is. I’ve filled the dimple with a paintable latex caulk and will paint once that drys. I expect the repair will be difficult to see once finished. Also repaired hole about the size of a quarter in the seat bolster. While not perfect, it’s a lot better than a hole. I stuffed the hole with a piece of black leather and coated it VLP. I like this stuff! Again, not perfect but what it does, it does very well!

Amazon product reviews The product arrived on time and as described. Price was reasonable . Appears to be good quality & should do the job. Used product to fix some very small pin holes in RV awning. Definitely tuff to work with from below on bottom of awning . As it drip off of awning after application. I Got it to seal from below. I went on roof and applied another layer of glue on top. So far appears to be holding up well. Best to order from Amazon as you can’t find this type of product in any stores. Very specific for awning

Works good but really stinks, the fumes might hurt you so make sure you only use this outside. The product is very good, but the tube sucks. Very hard to control the flow, at times it may spit out way too much and get everywhere. It has a very thin consistency, so it will run on vertical surfaces. Dries very fast, within seconds, so you dont have very much work time and have to apply it fast. Maybe package it in a syringe type so you can see the flow of the glue? I used it to patch holes, some pretty bad and large damage on a vinyl upholstered engine cover boat box. Sanded down some spots that needed it and sprayed vinyl paint directly on top, worked well like the holes were never there. Vinyl cushion looks new again!

I used on arm front door armrests. It works well

UPDATED - unfortunately I do not suggest using this product for seat repair or applications where the item will be subject to lots of use/movement. The product becomes brittle and cracks again though the edges appear to stay bonded. The cracks started to happen after the first season of use...this update is much later than original post. It still can be a viable fix for other applications. ORIGINAL - Good stuff! Worked as described. I used fiberglass mat + VLP glue to repair my riding lawnmower seat. Use sharp scissors on the fiberglass mat and be gentle w/ the cut pieces to minimize it's edges from separating/fraying. IMPORTANT: VLP sets up quickly, so preparing your surface and plan of action for application is important for best results. APPLICATION PROCESS I USED FOR REPAIRING VINYL SEAT 1. Cleaned up tear edges using a razor blade since the final repair would be covered by fiberglass cloth 2. Cut small circular section of vinyl at the ends of each tear to help mitigate the crack's progression. A paper hole punch may do the trick if you can get it under the vinyl. I used the tip of the utility razor blade to make approximately 1/8" diameter cuts. The key is to ensure it's a continuous cut to not allow another rip to start. 3. Cut fiberglass mat to match tears leaving 1/2-1" margin on each side of tear 4. Apply VLP to seat tear area using Popsicle stick including glue to cover the area covered by the mat 5. Apply fiberglass mat to area quickly and work into the VLP glue w/ popsicle stick while adding a top coat of VLP. Be sure to cover the edges of the mat completely with VLP. 6. Pull off any straggler pieces of fiberglass mat to ensure a smooth finish. Be mindful of the length of the fiberglass pieces you pull so as not to make the fraying worse. Adding more VLP may be a better option to get the fiberglass to lay down in some instances. 6. Let dry for specified amount of time Best of luck.

This is a life saver especially for smaller repairs. Works almost immediately.

I had a huge rip on a vinyl upholstered kitchen booth seat/bench. I found an extra piece of the fabric and placed it under the rip and then applied the Performix repair adhesive. I used masking tape like the instructions state (every inch or so) and I also had to weight the fabric down with some hand weights being careful not to adhere the weights to the fabric. I let this set up until the next day (24 hours) and you couldn't rip it apart if you tried. It's strong. The only thing I don't like is it dries shiny/glossy, but I'm gonna try to sand it to see if that helps. Please note this is not an "invisible" repair. You have a very noticeable (and shiny) seam but it's better than duct tape, better than recovering the whole thing. For a cheap, easy fix ... not bad. In the right light, looks pretty good. I'ill try to remember to post a picture. I should've taken a before picture though.

Worked like a charm on the little hole and tears on the seat cushion of my leather couch, recommended highly. It does leave behind a shiny clear finish, so it will show up/be visible after application, especially on matte surfaces. I have found this to be a faster, easier, cheaper, and just as effective as Super Glue, in all general purpose situations calling for a quick and strong glue job. I'm on my third tube now, and found that one of the highest and best uses of this material to be all types of shoe repairs on leather and synthetic uppers, and best of all at fixing and sealing separating rubber and cork soles in boots, shoes, and sandals. Just use as you would any adhesive, (I formerly used shoe goo, which is difficult to work with and not as durable as VLP, and Gorilla Glue, which bonds well but dries to a beige color and expands 3X while drying) clamping or strapping the item shut/closed where you want it to end up during the drying process, and you will be very pleased with your results.
