Tenacious Tape Flex Heavy Duty Patches for Fixing Holes and Rips in Outdoor Fabrics, Vinyl, Pool and Snow PVC Inflatables, Peel-and-Stick, Clear, Two 3" x 5" Patches

Because of where I work, I carry a clear plastic briefcase. Although it’s of good quality, given enough time, those things will crack at points where there is a lot of stress, flexing, or bending. The kind of briefcase I have is somewhat expensive, but it was a great value, as it’s lasted for years. But to make it last a little longer, I used this tape. I’ve tried the clear packing tape on it, but that was a very temporary fix (a month at most). But this Gear Aid Tenacious Patch Tape has held strong for a couple of years. It has prolonged the life of my briefcase. This is the third time I’ve purchased this tape because it works so well. I’ve never found anything that works better. Yes, this is more expensive than other kinds of tape, but you truly get what you pay for. If you apply it correctly, you will not regret spending the extra money, because it lasts much longer, which may not save you a lot of money, but it will save you a lot of extra effort and headache of patching plastic over and over again. It has a bit of a frosty appearance; however, I’m not as concerned about how it looks as I am with how it holds, and it holds exceptionally well.

This gear tape is an essential item for waterproofing and prolonging the durability and functionality of your hiking gear easy peel off and true to size it's a great addition to anyone's backpack to keep you functioning with easy repairs in the outdoors.

I use this for various small holes in my pop-up tent near the seams and corner. The tape is very rubbery on the exposed side and created a little bit of trouble if the tape came in contact with the pop-up tent frame. In areas where it touched the frame it tended to peel off. Other areas where I applied directly on the tent that didn't come in contact with anything it worked terrifically. These are easy to cut and apply and seem to hold very well. just a word of caution if you are applying to areas that crease or touch other services like metal it tends to more easily come off. Still overall something great for me to have in my toolbox for a quick repair on the road.

2nd time I purchased this. Its good for patching up tears in furniture like recliners, mattresses etc

I use the tape on my boat seats and it works well and lasts about a season in the sun. These didn't stick for very long. Could have been a bad batch or they may have been old but I was disappointed.

This tape did exactly what I needed it to do. My dog jumped up on me one day and ripped my favorite seam-sealed waterproof winter coat so I included a before and after picture. I trimmed one patch which has a nice grid on the back side, peeled it off the backing and stuck it on my coat, smoothing from the middle outward. Turned out fine for my purposes! It feels like it adhered really well.

I bought 2 packs, so 4 patches. I used 2 to try to repair a leak at the end of a seam, a small pinhole, not an elongated seam separation, on a queen sized Intex air bed. The surface was clean, but has a slight texture. I deflated the bed and tried to flatten the surface to maximize surface adherence. The patch seemed to stick at first, but the edges started to come up fairly soon as if the adhesive was failing. I smoothed them back down, but, as soon as I inflated the bed a bit, a bubble formed and it leaked. I tried with a second patch, no better. I tried using the company’s glue over the hole and under the full patch and gave it a 12 hour drying period, nope. Maybe it works on some inflatables, but these were useless for this major-brand air bed. YMMV

I used this repair tape to fix my pop-up (fabric) hunting blind (which for you non-hunters is a tent) after it was punctured during a wind storm. Just wipe the tent fabric off with alcohol, cut a patch from the Tenacious Tape and apply. The tape is very light and flexible - and it sticks really well. Since the repair, the blind has been set up outside for 3 weeks, enduring sun, rain, snow & high winds. The patch is absolutely adhered with no signs of lifting - and no leaks. I am very pleased with this product and highly recommend it!

I say field patch, but really its my main material to patch my gear. Fixed my MSR tent holes, my ArcTeryx goosedown jacket etc. They stretch and move very well with your gear. No problems until now. It seems expensive at first, but you get a lot of mileage out of a sheet of this stuff. Just make sure you cut round corners so it's not likely to lift up.

Very sticky

Para los colores claros están perfectos, pegaron muy bien les puse un poco de calor para que el pegamento se una más con la tela. En colores obscuros creo que es preferible el negro ya que si se alcanza a ver lo ”transparente”

Ho preso queste toppe adesive per un piumino che si è bucato… devo dire che il materiale si vede che è di qualità ed è abbastanza elastico da rimanere attaccato senza problemi, anzi con il tempo si vede che acquista resistenza. L’unica pecca è che è veramente visibile ma d’altronde è l’unico modo per riparare capi tecnici. Un consiglio che posso dare è di farvi fare una mano per tenere il tessuto ben teso prima di applicare la toppa adesiva.

I have a much-loved and very well travelled Travelpro nylon soft side suitcase which is getting a bit scuffed and abraded at the edges. I always check it in so it's at the mercy of baggage handlers and I get that it won't last forever. If a simple fix like this prolongs its useable life, that makes me very happy. These patches are sticking on pretty well. Happy to buy more as needed
