ripped leather

can someone help -
I noticed a small tear in my leather seat today. And i was wondering if there was a way for me to fix it myself, without having to take it to a professional. And if i do, can you recommend one in the Baltimore/Washington area?
Thanks

Re: ripped leather

It's kinda hard to see the rip in that picture, but ....

It seems that pretty much every leather repair shop uses a glue called "Barge" cement. I've used it myself for small repair jobs and it works extremely well. It's hard to find in stores but you can probably buy some from a local shoe/leather repair shop. It comes in a red and yellow tube.

Use as little as possible, and wipe off any residue right away, before it dries.
