Is it vinyl? leather? fabric?

I'm guessing probably vinyl, in which case your auto part store will cary a vinyl repair 'kit' that will work beautifully!

Or you could always take it to an upholstery shop and pay to have it fixed most excellently!

I vote for duck tape! :D

Sorry but black, or if you can find the color to match electrical tape.

I have made repairs to seats with it for a long time.

So far each time it stays on well.

My last one is on a Lazer and has been on it for 3 years now.

Put the first layer on real tight, then double it up. It will hold like it was not even there.

I have been using eletrical tape to make seat repairs for years.

I just use black, but they have other colors.

I made a repair on my Lazer seat 3 years ago and it has stuck on it since.

Duct tape dry rots.
