Nothing is indestructible of course. In an unlike event however, repair can be done in the field as a permanent solution with Patch`n Go. The tape is so adhesive on urethane surface that it bonds permanently. The surface must be clean and dry of course and sharp edges need to be rounded out. Note: The patch needs to be activated by vigorously rubbing, when it is in place.
For serious ventures in the wilderness some extra does no harm, but there is no need to exaggerate.
We also have good expiriences in repair of latex (e.g. cuffs or socks on dry suits).
Direction
- Clean the area around the hole/tear with the Alcohol Swab (provided in the Kit)
- Be sure the patch extends at least 2,5 cm from all damaged areas
- Partially peel back the backing on the patch and apply the leading edge of the adhesive backed film to the cleaned surface
- Apply the patch slowly, removing the backing while smoothing the patch from the center outward toward the edges
- Once the patch has been applied, vigorously rub (!) the patch with the plastic squeegee (provided in the Kit) to enhance the bonding
- The patch will display excellent initial bonding within minutes of application, and the item will be ready for use. Further bonding will take place as the adhesive cures
Comes as Kit (7,5cm x 25cm Patch'n'go tape and 2 Alkohol pads, scraper and instruction, all in a waterproof plastic container, manual) or Roll (ca. 7,5cm x 50cm).
