Gear Aid McNett, tenacious ultra strong repair tape, clear

It does the job.

Given the high cost of this tape I was sceptical, but as I had a very large tear in my otherwise pristine Gore-Tex PacLite jacket I took a punt on it. Took a while to arrive (although within the indicated time to be fair and it was posted direct from the U.S), and there was only just enough provided to do my repair (it was a *very* large tear). I followed the instructions to the letter, prepping the surface with Isopropyl alcohol and trimming the corners to a curve. I applied the tape to the inside of the jacket, having first used clear Scotch tape on the outside to hold the material together as best I could. I had to use two pieces of Tenacious tape due to the nature of my tear. It has done a really nice job and you have to look quite closely at the outside of the garment to even spot the repair, it's extended the life of an otherwise still decent jacket. It's been about a month now since I did the repair and all is well with no sign of peeling so I'm hopeful about the longevity of the fix. I did spend quite a lot of time on the prep however and I suspect that (like painting) the end results are dependent on the quality of the preparation. It also probably helped that the Gore-Tex Pac-Lite inner was well suited to the tape adhesive. All in all, very satisfied and would buy again, especially as the supplier included a 10% off voucher for an additional purchase.

Works a treat. My tent is 7 years old and has taken a battering with the weather in that time, and as a result has a few small holes and a tear to it. This tape is fabulous. It's easy to cut and apply to the holes and tears on the outer tent (I applied the tape to the inside of the outer tent so it's discreet). It seems to stick very well, and time will tell if it can stand up to the challenging weather I'll be taking my tent in. Only downside is that it is very expensive for the small amount you get, so I've knocked a star off my review for that. However, if it keeps up to it's claims that it's virtually indestructible, then I will deem it a worthy investment and a success :-) I now keep the rest in my tent repair kit pouch and hopefully I will never need to use it again.

I cut a little slot in my sleeping bag so I could get a popper fitting tool inside. Popper is now repaired. Used this tape to patch the cut, and yeah it’s a bit of a mess where I didn’t close the cut enough first, but the tape is doing a. Great job it’s sticky and flexible

I bought this tape to repair a split in some gore tex packlite trousers. The tape didn't even last for 1 ride. The tape will be ok if you use it to repair a very lightly loaded seam. It did not work for the trousers. I would use this to patch gore tex but not in any areas subject to the fabric being pulled apart a bit during use.

This is an initial impressions review which I shall update later if there's anything worth noting. I got this tape to repair a lightweight nylon Barbour jacket, which I washed and spun despite the clear instructions not to spin(!).......resulting in a sort of stress tear on the underside of one of the arms near the seam. I cut a piece of tape roughly 5" x 3" and rounded off the corners and applied it. Seems to have stuck well, appears flexible but only time will tell how long it lasts. The matt finish means it doesn't show too much. A good thing is that the tape comes on a roll rather than folded, so you don't get distortions in the tape before you use it. It is expensive for the amount you get, but if it lives up to the spiel and means you can repair expensive kit effectively then it'll be worth it. Next day delivery with Prime means you're up and running again quickly. I've given it 5 stars because there's no reason not to at this stage......time will tell.

the tape was not sticky at all. kept coming off. even tho i have cleaned and dried the surface. it was only sticking to itself

This stuff is excellent, used it to repair a down jacket several times, the fix will be visible but that’s no easy ask. What I can say is the fix will last a long time and is very easy to do, just cut out a piece the size you want and press it down, go nice and slow and you shouldn’t have any problems. I carry a piece in my outdoor kit for repairs whilst I’m out in the field.

La adquiri para un sleeping bag de pluma que ya está muy usado y por lo tanto las plumas empezaron a perforar la tela al punto de que remendar ya no era posible, así que aplique la cinta en los lugares necesarios y funcionó perfectamente

I recently used this Tenacious Tape to fix a nasty rip in my tent, and I’m genuinely impressed with how well it holds. The off-white color was a great match for the fabric, making the repair look much cleaner than I expected. Application was incredibly easy—I just peeled and stuck it over the tear. The adhesive is very strong and stayed perfectly in place even after the tent was folded, packed, and set up again. It feels durable and provides a solid, weather-tight seal that I trust to hold up against the elements. It’s a huge relief to have a reliable fix instead of having to replace expensive gear. This is definitely going in my permanent repair kit for all my outdoor equipment. Highly recommended for anyone who needs a quick, permanent fix for rips or holes.

Product works well used for repair of seams on goretex jacket. So far so good

Easy to use and reliable

Tape worked great to repair small rips and bonfire-related burn holes in my down jacket. I bought the yellow to colour match my jacket and although the colour online is true to life, the tape itself is pretty sheer. Instead of working as a nice block over the damage (I cut my patches into the shape of stars because I am a loser) you can still see through any patches you apply. So not quite as neat a finish as I'd have liked, but overall does the job, and I'm not longer shedding feathers!
