Has anyone tried the vinyl/leather repair kits that come with a selection of coloured repair pastes and some grained paper (and sometimes a heating tool)?

Are they any good? I'm guessing bigger holes would need to be bridged underneath with a spare piece of vinyl before applying the colour repair? Any advice? Recommendations?

Thanks all

I have used one repair a tear in the arm-rest on my RR. it's not perfect but I bought a grey kit as I have grey leather and subsequently used my colour matched leather restorer from woollies to get it very close. It looks like a crease now, I suspect after use it will blend in quite nicely.

I've just ordered one for my drivers seat. I will let you know how i get on in a couple of weeks when I get through Mrs FB's list of jobs for me and I am allowed out to play again!
