Vintage Baseball Glove Forum

I saw a commercial on television last night for a "leather mendor" repair product where you can repair tears, holes in leather. Looks like you have to mix a little paint colors to match the leather one is repairing.
Have any of our glove repair folks tried this on our leather gloves?

I would be curious to know the answer to this myself. I've seen the commercials and, naturally, using it on a glove was my first thought!

Interesting idea - I may purchase just to test out and see how it goes. It might be fun to try and patch some lining holes in some beater gloves to see what happens.

I would like to know how that stuff works, too. I have always been afraid it would look like plastic or vinyl patching on leather.

I bet it works just as well as that "spray paint" crap that they sell on TV to cover bald spots on the back of your head

Yeah, I would also be interested in how that works. If it does a decent cosmetic repair on a display glove, that would be o.k. I wonder if it would hold up on a working glove. As for the "crap" you spray on your head to hide baldness...., only in America, the land of the flowbee, the pocket fisherman, etc., etc. lol

We used to call it "man in a can"

Has anybody ended up trying this? I've got a glove where two holes in the finger that join to the web have ripped and become one hole. I tried to mend it with super glue along the edges and it held fine until a ball hit that spot and it came right apart again.
