How To Repair Fabric and Carpet Cuts, Rips and Tears

Cuts, rips, and tears are eyesore damage that ranges from minor to severe extent.

00:00 - Read the reminder and instructions below and you'll surely fix your fabric damages in no time!

00:06 - Step 1. Prepare the damaged area.

Prepare the damaged area by trimming off loose threads or jagged bits and cleaning it with a household cleaner.

00:18 - Step 2. Insert the backing fabric.

Cut out a piece of backing fabric with rounded edges larger than the tear. Insert it into the tear with the help of the spatula.

00:38 - Step 3. Prepare your color mixture.

Use your color matching guide to look for your main color and secondary color. Please let me know if you need help with matching your color.

00:52 - Step 4. Apply the glue to the damaged area.

Apply it under and along the edges and work from the outside to the center to avoid air bubbles. Fill the damaged area as evenly as possible. Also, apply a thin layer of glue around the damage to blend in the repair.

01:22 - Step 5. Sift the repair fibers.

Hold the mixing jar above the adhesive upside down and gently tap the mixing jar. This will sift the fibers on the adhesive. Cover the fabric glue completely with fiber. Gently pack down the fibers with the spatula. Duplicate any fabric patterns such as lines or swirls with the spatula.

Allow 24 hours to dry. Once the fabric glue is fully dry, blow off excess fibers. If the repaired area gets hard wear, you can protect it by spraying a clear hairspray over the area.
