Hair-On Hide Glue Repair Kit G7 by Leather Doctor® is a Hair-On-Hide-Safe™ repair system designed to restore rips and tears without stiffening the hide.

  • Kit G7 features a water-based, flexible, soft-compact resin adhesive paired with a 24 sq. in. (0.4 mm thick) genuine lambskin repair patch, ideal for reinforcing damaged areas from the underside.

Formulated specifically for hair-on cowhide, sheepskin, and natural hide rugs, the adhesive bonds securely while remaining elastic, preserving the hide’s natural drape, flexibility, and hair movement. The thin lambskin sub-patch provides strong structural support without creating ridges, hard spots, or visible repair lines.

 Key Features & Benefits

  • Hair-On-Hide-Safe™ Adhesive – Flexible, water-based resin glue that dries soft and natural
  • Invisible Structural Repair – Reinforces rips and tears from beneath the hide
  • Genuine Lambskin Patch – 24 sq. in., ultra-thin 0.4 mm for seamless integration
  • No Stiffening or Hair Loss – Maintains natural softness, flexibility, and hair flow
  • Ideal for Hair-On Rugs & Hides – Suitable for cowhide, sheepskin, and hair-on leather décor

 Typical Uses

  • Repairing rips, tears, and splits in hair-on hide rugs.
  • Reinforcing weakened stress areas from the underside.

 Hair-On Hide Rip & Tear Repair Instructions

(Using Hair-On Hide Glue Repair Kit 2G by Leather Doctor®)

Before You Begin:

  • Perform repairs from the suede/flesh side only
  • Never apply glue to the hair side
  • Work on a clean, dry, flat surface

1️⃣ Step 1 – Clean the Repair Area (If Needed)

  • Lightly clean the suede/flesh side surrounding the rip to remove dust, oils, or residues that may interfere with adhesion.
  • Allow the area to dry completely before proceeding.
    • Leather Doctor® Principle: Clean bonding surfaces ensure maximum adhesive strength.

2️⃣ Step 2 – Prepare the Tear

  • Align the torn edges so they meet naturally without overlapping or forcing tension.
  • Trim loose fibers on the suede side only if necessary.
    • Tip: A relaxed, well-aligned tear results in an invisible repair from the hair side.

3️⃣ Step 3 – Cut and Position the Lambskin Patch

  • Cut the 0.4 mm lambskin patch so it extends at least ½ inch (12 mm) beyond the tear on all sides.
  • Test-fit the patch beneath the tear to confirm full coverage and flat contact.
    • Leather Doctor® Principle: Thin, flexible sub-patching prevents ridges and stiffness.

4️⃣ Step 4 – Apply Glue 

  • Apply an even coat to:
    • The suede side of the lambskin patch
    • The hide side edges of the tear
  • Allow the adhesive to become tacky (partially dry) before bonding.

5️⃣ Step 5 – Bond the Patch

  • Insert the lambskin patch beneath the tear and press firmly so the torn edges meet naturally.
  • Work from the center outward to remove air pockets and ensure full contact.
    • Apply light pressure and hold in place until the bond sets.

6️⃣ Step 6 – Dry and Relax

  • Allow the repair to dry naturally.
  • Do not stretch, fold, or stress the area during drying.
    • Optional: Gentle airflow may be used to speed drying, but avoid heat.

7️⃣ Step 7 – Groom the Hair Side

  • Once fully dry, gently brush or hand-separate the hair fibers on the grain side to restore natural hair flow and conceal the repair.
    • Result: A soft, flexible, structurally reinforced repair with no visible glue lines.

 After-Care Notes

  • Avoid vacuuming or aggressive handling over the repaired area for 24 hours
  • Normal use can resume once the adhesive has fully cured
  • For weakened hides, future preventive reinforcement from the hide side is recommended

 Leather Doctor® System Advantage

  • This repair method preserves:
    • Natural hide flexibility
    • Hair movement and texture
    • Soft hand feel without stiffening
