My seat had ripped during my crash [ small tear ] so I was curious to find something that could stop it from continuing. I used a bathroom/kitchen silicon to seal it up and it worked great.

that's a good idea.

stuff I've used before is called "shoe-goo"

I got it at rebel sport back when I used to skateboard alot. This stuff is great, all kids who seriously use their skateboard over here love it.
You basically squeeze some onto a hole in your shoe or whatever and spread it over it, few hours later its like a weird layer of leather over it... anyone know this stuff? might just be aussie.
I reckon it'd work a treat

Industrial Strength glue works good.
