Malcolm,
The kit is called "Vinyl & Leather Repair Kit" and is made by Permatex (the
people
who make gasket sealer). The kit comes with 7 colored fillers, a tube of
adhesive,
fabric backing material, several pieces of grain pattern, a heating tool,
spatula and
instructions. The kit number is "VR-1A" .
Hope You have as much success as I have had.
I originally bought the kit to repair a VW bra that I damaged in my "Idiot of
the
year entry" accident.
