Fabric Repair Kit, Type A Clear Patch for Canvas, Fiberglass, Leather, Polyester, Nylon & More, Gold Box, 2 Pack

I used this to repair a holiday blowup. I stored had stored it in its bag in my garden shed and some critter chewed into it. The patch kit was easy to use. I was able to apply the both the inner and outer sides of the nylon fabric. It stuck quickly. I let it set for the specified time. Set the decoration outside and plugged it in. It blew up and the patch held through the entire season. I looked at it when put it away and it looked good - no lift at the edges.

All in all a good product. I would buy it again. That being said.... It's a bit pricey for the quantity included. It's tape...not precious metal. I used it to repair a couple of tears in the attachment points of my polypropylene portable garage. I cleaned the area well with the alcohol pads supplied. At this point adhesion was not good. It was about 70 degrees F outside. I used a pinpoint lighter to gently heat up the material from behind without burning it and then a bit over the tape and it was like it was welded on! I cannot stress enough that if you do this ...DO NOT scorch the material or the tape! And do not cause what you're working on to go on fire! I do not speak from experience as I did not do any of that, but I can see it possibly being a problem for some people. It just needs some heat to work best...maybe a heat gun used judiciously...or even a blow dryer. Last...The backing on the tape is not easy to remove. To the manufacturer....you need to do something about the value for the money to the end user. You either need to improve on the initial adhesion of the adhesive you're using...or put the whole blow dryer thing in the instructions (or maybe the age of what I received caused that issue?) . Make the backing removal more user friendly in regards to peeling it off. Time will tell on the longevity of this product, but it's holding up so far.

Though my expectations weren't high for this unfortunate and unsightly sort of tear, this product did a much better job than I anticipated patching a 3 inch rip in the screen of an MSR tent. I cut two patches the exact same size, flattened the repair area over a small piece of plywood on top of a box in order to have a surface upon which pressure could be applied, and had a helper for an extra set of hands secure the material in place while I affixed the patch and then flipped it over and put the same sized patch on the other size. We may have had a bit too much tension on the screen as it puckered a bit under the patch upon completion, but it IS 100% fixed. It's immediately evident that this is a durable material with excellent adhesion that will be a long-term repair in this specific application. Read the enclosed instructions carefully three times, read all the positive reviews here for advice, conscript a helper, and have a plan - you'll do fine. I got an extra box just in case there was an error (based on the negative reviews), but that's now in the big "repair kit" box for future use.

Great for the camper and worked exactly as it should

Obviously, I didn’t read the description properly. Please note, what you receive is only 4 to 5 inches of tape. I was expecting a roll of tape so that I could patch my fur coat that has multiple tears in it. For $10 I expected more than 5 inches of adhesive. That being said, it does seem strong enough, I just applied it and don’t know how it wears over time.. especially with a garment that is actively being worn.. time will tell. I used it because I needed to fix my jacket in a timely manner, but moving forward I will search for a better priced option.

EDIT: Now that I was able to get out with the snow suit, it handled multiple days in single and double digit snowmobiling without issue. A lot of movement as well as falling off the sled in powder and the repair is still holding strong with no water intrusion at all. In the extreme cold it did stiffen up but it was still pliable enough that it could bend. Bought this to repair a rip in a snow suit and it is STICKY. Had to use almost half the roll (my own fault) due to how sticky it was and trying to patch both the inner liner and outside material since this is a waterproof snow suit. It will grab ANYTHING, hair, dust, fiber, and itself. If it does end up sticking to itself, just scrap that piece. Once I was able to patch the inside and outside, the use of a heat gun (NOT FLAME, hair dryer will work too) did even more wonder to the adhesive. Get the patch hot enough to conform to the material and use your fingers to push it "further" into the material. The instructions do say "massage heavily" after applying. I have no worry about this keeping the suit dry nor falling apart with how sticky and pliable the patch was.

Bought this kit in 2015 but didn’t end up using it for what I bought it for.... Six years later the inside liners of my tennis shoes started to wear through prematurely so I figured I’d see if this tape would work instead of trying to sew a new piece of liner into them. To my surprise it did adhere to the liner fabric and has held up for a month of use now, playing 3-4 times a week for 2 hours each time! My first comment is that the tape is NOT easy to work with. I imagine it’s because the adhesive is so extremely strong though because the issue comes from it sticking to itself. Once it has stuck to itself it WILL NOT release. I suggest not taking the backing off till right before you stick it to whatever your repairing and peeling the backing as you work instead of all at once like I did. This is what they instruct as well in the instructions. I’m amazed that it has lasted even a month but it doesn’t show any signs of coming off. If I get a few extra months out of the shoes it will have been worth the cost of the kit (even if I had bought it for this purpose). Will buy again now that I know how well it works!

My previous experience was for vinyl patching of inflatable products. High quality and works as intended. This purchase was for the fabric repair for a porch umbrella that had some tears in it. I ended up buying 3 rolls to do all of the patchings, it goes on easily and after a month has held up very well. my only complaint with the fabric patches is that it is expensive as you only get about an 18" strip per package

かなり接着力が強く、長期間の使用にも耐えられます。

A priori bon produit

It works on apparel with minor tears - not on anything really catastrophic, though

This clear fabric "tape", will repair tears or holes, in any type of fabric. Rafts, tents, sleeping bags, tire tubes, and on and on. Too much to list. Pictures will tell you more . And it gets stronger with time, like cement does. It comes with 3 different types of patches. 2 1"x1" pathches for small holes, and a long strip for cutting needed sizes. This is cool, it comes with a thick monofiliment line to repair the edges of material. Like if you rip the edge of a tent, you just fold an inch of fabric over this stiff filiment, and then apply the tape over it. That edge will never tear in that spot again. I've never seen that feature in a repair set, and I didn't know I was getting it. No messy glue. Fantastic stuff. And it is clear, and stretchable.
