GEAR AID Seam Grip WP Waterproof Sealant and Adhesive for Jackets, Tents, Sleeping Pads and Outdoor Fabric | Repairs Rips, Seals Seams on Nylon, Canvas and Vinyl

This stuff really works. Just goop it on there and it'll dry and turn into clear flexible sealant. Saved my tent.

It smelled like rubber cement, and I thought I had massively overpaid for a tube of rubber cement. But turns out its not that, its a different formulation. I had a textile motorcycle jacket with a couple rips in the side, took some 1000 denier nylon sheet, made some custom shaped patches, and slathered this stuff all over the jacket and patch, and let it cure overnight. Does it look like it was patched? Yes, yes it does. I don't care. Its held up well to wearing and high winds from riding fast. Very glad I tried this. Two thumbs up.

Used it to repair 2 plastic window/portals that fell out of our tent. Not the easiest stuff to use and not the cleanest job by me but, it worked. Have been in the rain a bunch of times and it's held up fine...no leaks.

My tent had a small leak coming from a top seam. I read about this product and decided to give it a shot. I read the directions and applied the sealant to the interior tent seams. One tube covered the seams for the entire ceiling of the tent, which was both the interior screen portion and the rain cap. I I applied this sealant on a sunny morning. I took off the rain cap and appied the sealant to the interior seams using the brush that was included. Then I applied the sealant to the inside seams of the screen ceiling. Applying the sealant on the ceiling was a bit more challenging than applying on a hard, flat surface because it drips down the brush. I just took my time and would wipe the excess dripping on the seam. It turned out just fine. The sealant is fairly easy to work with considering I didn't get frustrated while applying, haha. I allowed it to dry for a few hours then put the rain cap back over the tent. Later that afternoon we had a storm roll through with heavy rain and wind. YAY, NO LEAKS! I did not expect the rain or I would have applied on a different day because I thought it would need 24 hours to cure. Apparently, it did not and it worked perfectly. The sealant dries clear and shiny. After it dries, it feels rubbery and is flexible so it won't crack. I am highly impressed with this sealant and will purchase more to have on hand.

This stuff is great, but it is really messy/goopy to use. Your artistic skills will be the test of how neatly it all works out. Keep a few paper towels nearby! The applicator brush that screws on the tube can drip, and like I said, it is goopy. I found that it would form drips in the time it took to set up. It's moisture cure, so those that apply the product in humid climes will set up faster. I live in a dry zone and found that if I run hot water for a while in a shower, and then put the item being sealed in the closed bathroom after application, that it would cure much faster in the humidity, and any drips would be arrested. When it was all set up, I used a light coating of baby powder (just wiped on with a towel) which stopped it's inherent tackiness when cured. If you can get this product on the places that are leaking, it will stop the leaks. Oh, and do your organs a favor and don't apply this material in an enclosed space, it has pretty serious solvents. The item being sealed should be held in its natural position while the product cures. If the product you have applied touches any other part of your project, you will have a goopy mess on your hands! Think of ways to suspend your item so that other parts don't touch the applied product. I sealed PVC duffle bags and found that inflated trash bags inside the bags would keep everything the shape they needed to stay in until cured. If your fabric has a sharp bend in it when the product is liquid, if left that way it will probably retain a sharp bend in it when the product cures. Finding creative ways to hang, drape, or suspend your project will make for a successful application.

I recently had to deal with some bad seams on a tent I bought, and this sealant came to the rescue. What I really liked about this product was how easy it was to apply. It went on smoothly, and the drying time was impressively quick. Within a short period, the seams were sealed, and the tent was ready for use again. One thing to keep in mind, though, is that while the application process is simple, you need to be careful to avoid any mess, as it can get quite sticky. Additionally, depending on the size of your project, you might need more than one tube to cover all the problematic areas. Despite these minor issues, I’m pretty sure this sealant will outlast the tent itself. The seams feel much sturdier now, and I have no worries about them giving out in the middle of a camping trip. If you’re facing similar issues with your outdoor gear, this product is a reliable and efficient answer.

Mixed review. The main reason I purchased was for applying an iron-on patch onto a hiking day pack. Can not iron a patch onto nylon fabric and didn't want to create holes by sewing. So far, this has done a very good job of holding (I sanded the back of the patch first to rough up the plastic backing). But as a bonus, I used it to apply another iron-on patch to a heavy cotton uniform (the iron-on didn't actually work). The info for the product states that it works on other fabrics as well. I waited 4 days before putting it in the laundry and the patch just popped right off in the wash. So, not sure about the water-proof claim. Guess I'll have to actually break out needle and thread for the other patch!

I have had the same Arc'teryx shell for about 18 years now, past the time of warrantee, and the sellers offered to replace it at a discount the last time that I sent it to re-seal around the pockets. I decided to let it ride. Recently, and I think for the first time ever, I ran it through a washing machine, and followed the instructions. Well, easily a third of the seam tapes peeled right off (some had been replaced in the past by the manufacturer, and I had replaced one using iron-on tape). I used up a whole tube, gluing the original tapes back in place while also sealing the seams. I had to scrape off some residual seam sealer in places. It took a week+ of on-again, off-again work, but I got everything glued back. It did need a week past that for me not to feel any tackiness anywhere, and you will need a lot of clothes pins and/or those black metal paper clamps. With all the curvature, I could only do a small area at a time, then let it dry for 12 hours before removing the clamps, and lots of gluing of small missed areas was needed. (An ironing board for a work space helped, and I could clamp the fabric taut.) I am going to let it cure a good long time before wearing it. I live in a non-arid area, if that had an effect (some folks noted that it cures better under humidity). It took the whole tube; do not roll it up like toothpaste, as it will break at the corners, and it gums up rapidly. I did not try putting it into the freezer, thinking that I would not need to over the course of a week, but I should have tried it. Nearing the end, I would just poke a wire into the tube to get a little more glue to fix just one more spot. So, $8 saved me buying a new coat, or ironing new tape over all of those seems, which also would have cost more and with my skill level come out worse. There were also areas that seam tape would not have fixed, like sleeves for drawstrings, the collar plate, and some pocket areas.

Pricey but works well

Worked excellent for a tiny tearnin a downfilled jacket

works very well, easy to apply

No me gustó el producto, en la publicación dice que trae aplicador, sin embargo no es cierto esto, por lo que es casi imposible de aplicar

Awesome!
