A revolutionary ‘peel and stick’ patch is giving anglers and hunters the opportunity to save money and repair, rather than replace, damaged equipment.
Developed in the USA, Tear-Aid is a transparent water- and airtight patch which can be used to repair tears and holes in waders, wellingtons, umbrellas, kit bags and many other essential outdoor items. The flexible and adaptable patch remains adhesive in both high and low temperatures, making it suitable for use in all weathers.
Fraser Henderson, managing director of Haywood Outdoor Products, a major distributor of Tear-Aid in the UK, explains: “There are two types of patch available – an all-purpose fabric patch and a specific version for vinyl products. Between them, they can repair tears and holes in almost anything.”
Tear-Aid also holds air under pressure, even when stretched or compressed, making it ideal for repairs on inflatables including dinghies. The product is also suitable for use on tents, diving suits, sleeping bags and much more.
