Overview

Built for repairs that need to move with the material, these flexible patches are suited to fixing tears and holes in outdoor gear, vinyl furniture, inflatables, and similar items. The clear TPU construction is designed for peel-and-stick application, creating a waterproof seal without sewing or iron-on steps. It adheres to nylon, polyester, lycra, fleece, vinyl/PVC, rubber, non-oiled leather, and TPU, making it a practical option when a permanent, low-profile repair is needed. Each package includes two 3 x 5 patches, which is worth noting if you are planning larger or multiple repairs.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Designed for permanent repairs, so it is less suited to temporary fixes or situations where you may want to remove the patch later.
  • Best results depend on a clean, properly prepared surface and compatible materials; it is not a universal repair solution for every fabric or coating.
  • The clear patch is intended to be low-profile, but it will still be visible on some surfaces and colors.
  • Sized as two 3 x 5 patches, so larger damage may require multiple patches or a different repair approach.
