Hi,

I have a boat cover with a couple of 1" to 3" rips. I would hate to
buy a new cover just because of those small tears. So I'm looking at
ways to patch it. I know for a fact that duct tape is only a temporary
solution as it will not stand up to the elements (in California.)

My question is, is there any other tape that will perform better than
duct tape. Sewing is not really an option as getting that monster in
the sewing machine won't work.

BTW: The cover is made of 100% polyester.

Any ideas?

Thanx in advance to all who reply.


How about an iron on patch?

On polyester???

Here's a link to a patch that specifies that it will work on polyester.
