Cheers, handy video. I bought some tape ages ago to fix a cut across the knee of my overtrousers and then moved house and totally forgot about it. Just recently dug it out and saw the thing about using an iron and thought I was going to be destroying the surrounding area! Will give this method a go
Now our problem is that we don’t have any waterproof clothing!! (Just big coats for when it’s under 0 degrees) - if you’d have asked me how to fix it - I’d have said duck tape! Thankfully there’s folks like you who know better - thanks for the info and love the waterfall pic in your living room!! Great video and happy Easter x🍻
Haha well duck tape is one option😆👍. Thanks very much for taking the time to watch guys, even though you don't possess any waterproofs, we really appreciate it😊🙏. And thank you for complimenting the waterfall mural, apparently it is a photograph of some waterfalls in croatia, we want to go there one day!😊🤞🏞. Hope you both had a fantastic Easter weekend, and the week ahead goes well, Shell and Pete
Hey Chris, thanks so much mate😊👍. Bit of a different one for us but hope it helps someone out. We have been away so need to catch up on everyone's adventures. Yours is top of our watch list, saving for the big screen later, looking forward to it😊👊🏕. Hope you are well and have had a great Easter weekend, ATB, Pete and Shell
@@o.bsoutdoors3871 Yeah but its good to do different ones sometimes I think, then if you can help someone out of it, bonus! Ahh thanks 😃 well I really hope you enjoy watching it. Just rendering over on RUclips now... Thank you and hope you have had a great Easter too 😁✌🏼 ATB... Chris
Oh wow - that’s really cool Pete - this will lengthen the life of our older waterproof kit 👍👍👍 What a great tip - great I do and great share mate Hope you two are having a great weekend 👍👍👍👍
Hi there Dave and Sue😊👋. Chuffed to bits you will get something out of this👍. Bit of a different video for us but thought it was worth sharing and hopefully it will help some people out🤞😊. We are well thanks, we have been away for the past week so we are looking forward to catching up on everyone's videos. You guys are on our watch list as always😊. Hope you have been out and about and enjoying the spring weather this Easter weekend. Take care and catch you soon, Pete and Shell
That's gonna come in handy! I'm trying to just keep everything and fix as I go, this helps a lot! I hate throwing away my gear, I get so attached to them :)

Hey Pete and Shell! I have missed your faces!! This is fab video, everyone is in the habit of throwing away stuff thinking it can't be repaired. A very cost effective repair of an item you love. I'm trying to be more conscious about what I buy and be more ethical, although a little bit difficult when there isn't a lot of choice. Lovely to see you both again and don't be too long again 🥺 hope you both had a fab bank holiday!!
Hey Dee😊👋, lovely to hear from you too. We have been away last week so need to catch up on everyone's adventures! We watched your Hallin fell video last night on the big screen, will pop over again to comment shortly😊👍. So glad you found this video useful, you are absolutely right we are a bit of a throwaway society. Pete hates throwing anything away (he is a bit of a hoarder!😆), so he will always try to fix rather than bin it. Plus we could all do with saving a few pennies this year the way things are going😫. Hope you and Joe are well and you guys had a fab Easter weekend. We have quite a few videos filmed of our time away so P has his hands full editing those😄, but hopefully they will start going up soon🤞. Take care and catch you soon, Shell and Pete

Get yourself a seam sealing iron, sometimes called leather iron. The blade is only about 26mm wide, avoids damage to the surrounding material. Amazon UK carry a couple of models.
Great tip Nigel thanks so much! Just checked out amazon and we will be purchasing one of these! Relatively inexpensive too compared with the money saved by repairing old kit😊👊👍
HI , I dont know if somebody already mentioned that you can iron the tape on (best would be)cushioned piece of plank the thickness of the tape. Of course the plank is held upright . In this case you only have tape on it minimizing possible burning of the fabric .
Thanks for this great video. Very clear and concise. Can you cut a piece of fabric to place either side of the seam to be glued, thus protecting the gore tex lining from heat damage ? Regards.
Hi There, That is a great idea and would offer the gortex added protection, all i would say is to be careful that the glue doesn't melt onto the fabric during the process and end up glueing the fabric to the repaired seam. Thanks so much for watching, really glad you found this video helpful All the best Pete😊👍
Afternoon Pete, Shell ❤ happy Easter guys, hope you are both good and well 🤗 good video Pete, something for everyone here, good demonstration and information. Something that blew my mind about gore-tex was tumble drying to reactive and waterproofticicty (fake word alert ⚠️) the seam sealing of the seams is a great shout! Catch you soon, Ceri and Kat ☕ ❤ 👍 🧭 🗺

Thanks - any guidance on sealing up a rubberized jacket - sleeve has torn off the back half while riding a motorbike. Any idea if this type of tape will work with the rubber coating?
Hi Mark, This type of tape would work on the inside of the fabric. But you would need a specialist contact adhesive and repair strip for the rubberised outside. Good luck, and thanks for watching 👍
Hi Paul, That might be tricky as the tape needs pressure applied as the glue melts and it is fixed to the garment,so it could be messy if all of the glue is already melted. But best of luck if you decide to give it a go👍 Thanks for watching😊👍
I have one dilemma. I need to do this to a pair of fishing waders, that have recently started leaking. The problem is half that is leaking is Neoprene, and the other half is material such as your pants. How do I know that this would work on both materials?
Hi there, Thanks for your question. Unfortunately, I have only ever tried this on gortex material or its equivalent. I have no experience with Neoprene, so couldn't guarantee this would work. However, as the tape is such a cost-effective solution, i would recommend giving it a go! Good luck, And all the best👍
Hi Pete, I enjoyed watching this video and such a great idea to showcase this too 😊 I’m sure it will help a lot of people 😊😉 Shell needs to put you in charge of all the laundry too, as your a dab hand at textiles 😊😉 I like doing the laundry 🧺😁 (says the solo Dad) lol
Hi Stephen, thanks very much for watching mate👍. If this video helps a few people out and saves them money I'll be happy😊👍. Haha i don't think i will volunteer to do the laundry just yet, but i am better than Shell at ironing (don't tell her i said that😆😆🙈). Hope you are well and have a great week, Pete
Hi there . Thanks for a great bit of info .. I need to replace similar on my tent - I expect the same technique ( I like the comment re raising the level of the work surface to minimise the risk of damaging the material either side .. ) Have you done tent repairs yourself - and if so would you recommend a particular clear tape ?
Hi there, Have to say i haven't repaired a tent using this method, but that's not to say that it wouldn't work perfectly well, just on a larger scale. We purchased our tape from eBay using the following link: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/184409468685?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=z5UU8hlOR4u&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=oddU0L1CTKq&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=WHATS_APP Other brands are available on ebay and they are all very similar. Hope that helps and good luck with repairing your tent👍 Thanks for watching
Hi Beth, you don't need to remove the old glue, it will melt with the iron when you put the new tape over it. There was lots of old glue on the trousers i fixed in the video. Thanks very much for watching, Pete😊👍
You could try this method, but I think the tape and the iron need direct contact in order to ensure the glue gets hot enough. Thanks for your question👍
Can you include a link to the website you purchased this tape from? The tape I purchased from Amazon is rubbish. The tape on my rain pants is much stronger. Similar to this video.
Hi there, Yes of course, we just purchased it from eBay using the following link: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/184409468685?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=z5UU8hlOR4u&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=oddU0L1CTKq&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=WHATS_APP Other brands are available on ebay and they are all very similar. Hope that helps and good luck with your repair👍
Hi there, i wouldn't recommend using a heat gun, you may melt the fabric, it needs to be heated on a very small specific area staying on the tape only, so an iron is best. Thanks for watching, and i hope this helps👍
Is there such a thing as a double-sided version of this, for fusing two different pieces of waterproof fabric together? I have a hole in some waterproofs, and I'd thought that maybe patch it, but this stuff seems to be single sided.
That is a very good question. To be honest we don't know if there is a double sided version of this tape. Although we have managed to patch over small holes using the one sided version. Obviously this won't be breathable, but depending on the size of the hole, that may be less of an issue. Hope you find a solution and this video helped😊👍
Could you give a link to where you got the tape from? Are there good and bad versions? I want./ need to mend a seam in the neck of my paclite jacket but worried about ruining the fabric itself.
Hi molly, yes we just purchased it from eBay using the following link: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/184409468685?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=z5UU8hlOR4u&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=oddU0L1CTKq&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=WHATS_APP Other brands are available on ebay and they are all very similar.
