Product Description

Use Tenacious Tape to fix holes and tears quickly on technical and synthetic fabrics including vinyl, nylon, rubber and plastic gear. It’s a peel-and-stick, weatherproof repair tape that’s washable and won’t peel over time. It sticks to jackets, tents, and tarps; staying put no matter what Mother Nature dishes out. Instantly make a tent repair with Tenacious Tape in ripstop nylon or clear tape for a barely noticeable solution. Tenacious Tape also comes in a tough, flexible nylon fabric strip for jackets and other camping gear. Do not use on cotton or natural fabrics. For inflatables and sleeping pads requiring heavy duty fixes, use puncture-resistant Tenacious Tape Flex Patches. When outdoor gear gets ripped or torn, Tenacious Tape will handle it – allowing you to stay outside longer.

    Customers like the tear resistance of the product. They mention it's a great product for repairing fabric rips, tears, holes, and burns. It's easy to use, makes quick work of minor tears or burns on tents, sleeping bags, coats, and other items. It is transparent and makes an almost invisible repair.

    "...The adhesive worked really well too. The patch hasn't delaminated at all. I develop anymore holes, I will definitely be using this. Excellent product." Read more

    Customers are mixed about the quality of the product. Some mention that it held up well on their trip, is durable, and tenacious. However, others say that it didn't hold up and split along the original split in the leather. Some say that the inner side of the jacket started to peel and the edges started peeling shortly after.

    Customers are mixed about the durability of the product. Some mention that it survives a number of washes, stands up to a pressure wash, and rain. However, others say that the tape on the outside started coming off within the first week.

    "...However, the tape is peeling at the corners after only a week with no washes, just regular wear. I expected a stronger hold." Read more

    "Repaired a large gash my dogs left in my gazebo mosquito net. Easy repair - cut to size, remove backing, stick on!..." Read more

    "...over 24 hours, and when I shook Santa out, about 75% of the tape had completely come off. What the heck!?..." Read more

    "...No use for pro-looking repairs...." Read more

    77 customers mention45 positive32 negative

    Customers are mixed about the appearance of the repair tape. Some mention that it looks good, neat, and simple. Others say that it was loose from the vest and looks terrible. The sheen is different than the fabric, so it's pretty obvious that a repair has been made. The matte finish makes it noticable on a down coat.

    "Is not heavy, or sticky. Adds shine. It's my fave and I've tried many...." Read more

    "...Its not the prettiest stuff nor is it easy to cut with scissors I recommend using a utility nice a good sharp one with a little silicon spray on the..." Read more

    "...We’ll see how it holds up, but the repair seems solid and looks good. The clear tape is unobtrusive, but not invisible...." Read more

    "...It looks like scotch tape on my jacket." Read more

    81 customers mention0 positive81 negative

    Customers are dissatisfied with the value of the tape. They mention that it is a big waste of money for the price, expensive for the amount of tape that you get, and that it's wholly ineffective.

    "...So far it has held up great. It’s expensive for the amount of tape you get. That’s my only complaint." Read more

    "...Will need to strip this from my beloved bag and try again, waste of time and money..." Read more

    "...complete waste of money (in my opinion)." Read more

    "...; on a tear, I have personally found this tape to be sadly and wholly ineffective...." Read more

    Be VERY careful, different tape colors are different material!

    Be VERY careful, different tape colors are different material!
    Several years ago, I bought a roll of this tape in the “off-white” color and have been using it for successful repairs on my Patagonia Nano Puff jacket as well as other nylon gear. I finally ran out of my first roll of tape and purchased another in the “clear” color. This new roll is much worse in every way! It’s thicker, the adhesive doesn’t work as well, and it’s peeling at the corners. You can see the difference in the attached photo, the top sleeve is repaired with off-white but the bottom is repaired with clear. I didn’t bother to cut the corners round on the off-white tape and those patches have been in place for more than a year, no peeling or other issues, and they feel and move just like the jacket. With the clear tape, the edges started peeling basically immediately after application, I catch my fingers on the edges and the tape feels much thicker than the jacket’s nylon fabric.Another review pointed out that the clear tape is made of PVC (plastic) while the off-white is made of rip-stop nylon. This is not clear at all from the description, you have to really dig through the images of the packaging to figure it out.I’d give 5 stars for the off-white tape, and 1 star for the clear PVC tape. Why they sell the clear, I have no idea. Perhaps it works well on plastic things like a pool toy or something, but I bought this tape to repair my nylon outdoor gear.
