South Africa fast bowler Hardus Viljoen took five wickets on his Kent debut as they bowled Gloucestershire out for 221 on day one in Bristol.
The hosts lost opener Chris Dent for a duck in the fourth over and Gareth Roderick (23) shortly after.
Will Tavare (20) and Michael Klinger (10) continued a steady fall of wickets until Hamish Marshall (58) and Phil Mustard (38) led the hosts' recovery.
However, Viljoen swept through the tail to end with impressive figures of 5-55.
