Review on Premium GEAR AID Tenacious Tape: Repair Outdoor Camping Gear Effortlessly - 3” x 20” Fabric and Vinyl Tape by Charles Palma

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Recommended by the manufacturer!

Amazing product, as everyone says, bought this to fix a small crack I had while cleaning the wall with an Arc'teryx down jacket that is 48 hours old! I sent the jacket back to Arc'teryx for repair first and they sealed the small hole in the jacket. As standard practice they call to confirm what is being done, so during the call they actually recommended Tenacious Tape for those little breaks (or something else as they explained its great use as I've read in other reviews). The heat seal they use may not be as effective as it is very small. After 2 years the edge of the crack started to fray as the gasket is in the case cell so I looked for tape to cover the weld and prevent it from reopening. The result has been very satisfactory, it is almost invisible since the pure color blends well and has a texture similar to the ripstop nylon that light down jackets are made of, it is more matte than shiny, but in reality it is normal because the gap is closer to the bottom. Part of the cell, so not visible. highly recommended!

Pros
  • Apply Tenacious Tape to virtually anything with its aggressive adhesive that sticks strongly to nylon, mesh, vinyl, rubber and plastic; Not recommended for seams, denim, cotton or natural fabrics.
Cons
  • Volume
