  1. Match as close as possible the color you will need.
  2. Clean the area with Velour, Fabric & Carpet Spot Remover if needed. Prep area with Silicone Wash. This will get rid of any fabric protectants that might have been applied and guarantees good adhesion.
  3. Scrape any carbon from the burn by using a razor blade.
  4. If damage if completely through the material you must put in a sub-patch. Position the sub-patch between the foam and fabric with a pair of tweezers or palette knife. You may need to use some foam under the sub-patch to make the repair area flush. Secure the sub-patch material with Base Velour Adhesive. Let dry completely.
  5. Apply Base Velour Adhesive inside the burn hole to embed your velour fibers. For best results make sure the repair area is as flat as possible. Use a razor rlade, toothbrush or detail brush to embed the fibers into the adhesive. Now seal the area with Base Velour Adhesive (thinned out) over the top and dry with Hair Dryer completely.
  6. Spray a wet coat of Water Base Velour Adhesive and apply velour with an Atomizer or Electrostatic Gun to blend your repair. If using the Electrostatic Gun, the fibers will be drawn into the adhesive, standing on end, leaving a soft velvety feel to the repair. Dry completely with a Hair Dryer.
  7. Spray a light coat of Fabric Shield over the top to protect, seal and leave a soft natural feel.

Using a hair drier to dry the adhesives will help add strength to your repair.
