Yes! We try to be as prepared as possible to ensure that we have stock on hand but sometimes in the unforeseen circumstances where demand skyrockets we are unfortunately left with no stock.

We will keep this page updated and be sure to inform you of the waiting times.

Usually each repair should only take a few hours before it is good to go again! But just to be sure we like to say allow 24 hours first before using the item again.
Within the kit, there are detailed instructions and a color matching guide. Using this guide, you will be able to mix and create the color that perfectly matches the item you are fixing. If you follow the instructions perfectly you should be able to create a seamless repair and you won’t even be able to notice the repair!
Included in your kit is everything you need to complete your repair! For the Leather and Vinyl Kits you will however be required to prepare the area using rubbing alcohol. You'll need rubbing alcohol and any piece of clean fabric to wipe down and prepare the area before you begin your repair. We don’t include these in our kits as we try our best to keep waste to a minimum. Check your cabinet first and see if you have any rubbing alcohol before purchasing any. From time to time it might also be necessary to use some cotton wool if there has been a loss of shape or material from the area that you are repairing. It will all be in the instructions of the kit that you purchase though so no need to worry!
We have made it so you can easily wipe off the repair compound with a wet cloth or sponge in the case that you make a mistake and want to start again!
