How much does it cost to repair a cut in a vinyl car floor mat?

Professional repair of a cut in a vinyl car floor mat can be expensive. Depending on the severity of the cut and the location of the damage, the cost can range anywhere from $100 to $500 or more. This is because a professional repair service will typically use a combination of tools, materials, and techniques to remove the damaged area and replace it with a patch that is nearly identical to the original material. This often requires special equipment and skills, making it a more expensive option.

Coconix Leather and Vinyl Repair Kit

Rubbing Alcohol

Cotton Swab or Cotton Pad

Plastic Wrap (for adding texture)

Step 1

Preparing the Area

Prepare the damaged area by carefully trimming any excess threads, jagged bits, or cuts on your vinyl car floor mat.

Step 2

Cleaning the Area

Clean the area around the cut on your vinyl car floor mat with rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab.
Make sure to test it on a hidden area first. If alcohol is harsh for your material, you may use warm, soapy water or your usual leather or vinyl cleaner.

Step 3

Mixing the Repair Compound

If your repair requires a custom color, refer to the Color Mixing Guide in the kit to match the color and prepare the mixture using the empty mixing jar provided.

Step 4

Applying the Repair Compound

Apply the repair compound to the cut on your vinyl car floor mat.
Start by applying it under and along the edges and work from the outside toward the center.
Use the spatula for larger applications and the brush for surface applications and detailed touch-ups.

Step 5

Drying and Additional Layers

Allow several hours for the repair compound to dry until it is no longer sticky to the touch on your vinyl car floor mat.
Once dry, apply additional layers until the repaired area is level with the rest of the area.

Step 6

Adding Texture

Once the repair compound is semi-dry, tear off a slightly larger piece of plastic wrap.
Press it against the semi-dry final layer of the repair compound on your vinyl car floor mat.
When you lift your hand off, the area will be slightly textured.
Repeat this process until you've achieved the desired texture. Adding texture will help the repaired section to blend with the rest of the floor mat.

Step 7

Finishing Touches

After the repair compound has dried, use a cotton pad or cotton swab and rubbing alcohol to buff out the edges of the repair on your vinyl car floor mat.

Step 8

Maintenance

Clean your car floor mat regularly with a damp cloth or suitable cleaner to remove dirt and debris.
Avoid exposing the mat to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight for long periods of time.
Place a barrier under sharp objects to prevent cuts or punctures in the future.
