How to repair a cigarette burn on the car seat

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Seat

Today we will explain how to repair a cigarette burn on a car seat. The first thing that comes to mind when our seat is damaged is to buy seat covers or even have the upholstery changed. What we do not know, however, is that it is possible to repair a cigarette burn completely independently and at a minimal cost. Sometimes, to repair a small burn, all we need is a razor blade and silicone. With the razor blade, we scrape the fabric of the seat and place it inside a small container. Then, we pour small amounts of silicone into the burn and use tweezers to place the fabric, previously scraped, inside the hole. We let the silicone dry. Finally, we scrape the fabric again to even out the burned part with the unburned part.
