Q: Our flooring on our brand new motorhome got damaged. When the slide came in a piece of metal caught on the floor and put a thin 18" scratch in the floor. It didn't go all the way through, but scratched the top surface. Will one kit repair and 18" long scratch? It is vinyl with a wood appearance, so it would need to go across 4 "plank patterns" with various would colors, so I would need to mix a color for each plank design the scratch covers. I have pics if there is some way to send them to you.

Asked by: Debbie - 4/24/2016

A: How deep the scratch is will determine if you will use this kit. You will need a scratch that is at least 1 mm deep. If it is not deep enough the putty will not be able to stick.

If this is the case you can use our Vinyl ScratchAway Spray or ScratchCure Repair pens to minimize the appearance of the scratch.

If you feel your scratch is deep enough, one kit should be able to fill a narrow 18" scratch.

The kit will include many different color formulas, you should be able to find a color that is close to your floor's color and adjust accordingly.

Q: is this kit good for repairing; tile, marble and wood?.

Asked by: Raffoul - 2/3/2017

A: Our Mix2Match VinylFix can be used to repair both vinyl and wood/laminate surfaces. However it is not a good match for Tile/Marble as the putty is designed to expand and contract with a floor. We recommend either the Mix2Match Hard Surface Repair Kit if you are trying to repair multiple types of surfaces. Mix2Match TileFix is also available for your Tile/Stone repairs.

Instructions

IMPORTANT: The putty mixture dries much darker. When mixing, test a small amount of mixed putty on a scrap of cardboard, or on an inconspicuous area of floor before applying to repair area. Use a hair dryer to allow quick color testing and speed drying of applications. Mixture might need adjusting to ensure a good color match.

Hint:Cover mixture with plastic to preserve for a second application or for future use.

Preparation: All surfaces should be clean and dry. Shake all pigment bottles thoroughly before and during use.

Application

Choose a color from the formula chart found inside this package that closest matches the floor.

It helps to match the floor’s background color first, then use graining (described below) to apply the foreground colors and pattern.
Follow directions for the Mixing Method which applies to your formula:
Method A: add the required amount of tint drops into the bowl and mix thoroughly with the stick. Dip stick in bowl and apply mix to mixing board with a sharp tap - see photograph 4).
Method B: add tint drops directly to the putty

Measure the required amount of putty onto the mixing board by using the reference lines, then add the required tint to putty and mix until the putty is uniform in color.
Apply mixed putty to floor with a flat plastic spatula, slightly overfilling the area of repair. Scrape off any surrounding excess with spatula. Allow to dry.
When the mixture is freshly dry, gently rub away the excess of the surrounding area with a damp cloth until the surface is smooth.
If shrinkage occurs, re-apply the above mixture
Once the repair is completely dry and graining or marbling is finished, apply clear lacquer over the area using the brush.

HINTS & TIPS

To save time, pre-fill deep gouges with untinted putty and let dry before topping off with final matching color.
Save all putty mixes (including tests) under plastic wrap or on cards for 2nd application, marbling tests, etc.
For very fine repairs, trim brush to make it smaller before applying lacquer.
To achieve very light colors, add a small amount of the putty/tint mixture to some fresh putty until the desired lightness is achieved.
To slightly alter colors, add tint to some fresh putty first, then add that to your existing mixture.
If more space is needed, the back panel of package can be cut off and serve as a mixing plate.
Putty will darken greatly as it dries.
For minor scratches, try our ScratchAway concealer or our ScratchCure Repair Pens.
Always test graining on a scrap piece of putty.
Put some variations of your mix on cards or post-its, let dry, then hold against your
needed repair areas. Save scraps to test graining.
For a more realistic repair, match the background color (usually much lighter)
first, then add darker foreground graining or marbling.
Final lacquer application can darken some formulas.

COLOR ADJUSMENT TIPS

Note: Tints are concentrated - use sparingly.
The colors can be made lighter or darker by adding more or less putty or by adding the white tint to your mixture.
To achieve very light colors, add a small amount of the putty/tint mixture to some fresh putty until the desired lightness is achieved.
To slightly alter colors, add tint to some fresh putty first, then add that to your existing mixture.
For a more realistic repair, match the background color (usually much lighter) first, then add foreground graining or marbling.

CREATING GRAINING OR MARBLING EFFECT

After repair is complete - and before applying lacquer add your graining or marbling:

Mix tints in the bowl to closely match the graining or marbling. It’s better to start lighter than darker.
Add the white tint or water to reduce the strength of the color, if needed.
Place 3 drops of the lacquer onto the mixing board surface.
Pull the cotton away from one end of the swab, creating a fine strand, like a fine paint brush.
Lightly dip the cotton strand in the tint bowl, being careful not to dip the whole swab.
Draw the strand once or twice through the lacquer on the mixing board.
Lightly create graining or marbling with the fine strands over the repaired area.
Allow to dry and apply a coat of clear lacquer over final repair.
