I can't remember what I ordered from TTS, but one time they sent me a chart with actual small swatches of vinyl samples attached to it. I saved it because I thought I might use one or several as patches on my back seat (which has some small rips in the vinyl.) Haven't gotten around to doing it...
Bottom line is you might contact The Thing Shop and ask them to send you one of their vinyl charts. Very Happy
