Gear Aid Tenacious Tape Repair schwarz One Size, Black

Given the high cost of this tape I was sceptical, but as I had a very large tear in my otherwise pristine Gore-Tex PacLite jacket I took a punt on it. Took a while to arrive (although within the indicated time to be fair and it was posted direct from the U.S), and there was only just enough provided to do my repair (it was a *very* large tear). I followed the instructions to the letter, prepping the surface with Isopropyl alcohol and trimming the corners to a curve. I applied the tape to the inside of the jacket, having first used clear Scotch tape on the outside to hold the material together as best I could. I had to use two pieces of Tenacious tape due to the nature of my tear. It has done a really nice job and you have to look quite closely at the outside of the garment to even spot the repair, it's extended the life of an otherwise still decent jacket.It's been about a month now since I did the repair and all is well with no sign of peeling so I'm hopeful about the longevity of the fix. I did spend quite a lot of time on the prep however and I suspect that (like painting) the end results are dependent on the quality of the preparation. It also probably helped that the Gore-Tex Pac-Lite inner was well suited to the tape adhesive. All in all, very satisfied and would buy again, especially as the supplier included a 10% off voucher for an additional purchase.

Works a treat. My tent is 7 years old and has taken a battering with the weather in that time, and as a result has a few small holes and a tear to it.This tape is fabulous. It's easy to cut and apply to the holes and tears on the outer tent (I applied the tape to the inside of the outer tent so it's discreet). It seems to stick very well, and time will tell if it can stand up to the challenging weather I'll be taking my tent in.Only downside is that it is very expensive for the small amount you get, so I've knocked a star off my review for that. However, if it keeps up to it's claims that it's virtually indestructible, then I will deem it a worthy investment and a success :-)I now keep the rest in my tent repair kit pouch and hopefully I will never need to use it again.

I used this to repair a tear in a large divers trolley bag. It was along the zip, so I was very pessimistic it would work. It did! A few years on and the bag is still going strong. The bag was black so the repair is almost invisible. I’ve used the tape since to patch the interior of a pair of shoes! Really good product, which I have bought again.

This is an initial impressions review which I shall update later if there's anything worth noting. I got this tape to repair a lightweight nylon Barbour jacket, which I washed and spun despite the clear instructions not to spin(!).......resulting in a sort of stress tear on the underside of one of the arms near the seam. I cut a piece of tape roughly 5" x 3" and rounded off the corners and applied it. Seems to have stuck well, appears flexible but only time will tell how long it lasts. The matt finish means it doesn't show too much. A good thing is that the tape comes on a roll rather than folded, so you don't get distortions in the tape before you use it. It is expensive for the amount you get, but if it lives up to the spiel and means you can repair expensive kit effectively then it'll be worth it. Next day delivery with Prime means you're up and running again quickly. I've given it 5 stars because there's no reason not to at this stage......time will tell.

Used this to plus a small tear in a tent canvas. Or the tape on both sides, following instructions. Seem to hold well until it got wetter, then the tape detached itself from one side.

Bought this to patch a split on a tent window. It's advertised as clear, but is far from it. Instead it leaves a very obvious patch that looks like frosted glass.

Excellent. Bought this to repair a small tear on dark blue NF down jacket and it has blended in fully to the material so virtually invisible. Seems to have stuck down full, with no gaps or bubbles. Hope it lasts and if it doesn't it's easy to use another piece

Brilliant - game changer . Used on waders
