Is there anything that fills needle holes on vinyl? I had to open a seam and now can see some of the needle holes after the re-stitch. is there vinyl compound or something?

Can you stitch the seam up a little tighter? I'm not aware of anything you could put on the vinyl to fill the holes, and I would be worried about how it would hold up long term anyways. Your other option would be to remake that particular piece.

Your best option is to re-sew the seam a little tighter. They have vinyl repair kits for repairing small areas but that is an art form in its self to get it to look good.

If it’s only a few holes, I might try to repair it with a repair kit. Color and location would be a consideration.
