Excellent how-to DIY patch! Neighbor just threw me an Ommegang Abbey Ale for patching her siding-thanks to you!

Agree with jdat below, save the scraps....and tin snips make a nice cut on vinyl.

Thanks again, highly recommend this technique!

Thanks. I did the same thing myself but I had no pop gun so I used some silicone and a couple of small stainless screws.

i meant tin snips, they work good on vinyl too.

Great trick ... thinking it looks so good I wouldn't get around to doing the whole panel. This is a good time to mention that you should always try to save some scraps from when you have the vinyl install (or when you install it). Just throw some scraps in the attic, they will come in handy as it can be a pain to match color later. lol, as if I'm one to lecture about safety, but there's really no reason to draw that knife towards your thumb like that, w/ no glove to boot. Use wire cutters
