Title: Emergency canoe/paddle patch
Post by solotripper on Feb 1st, 2018 at 3:32pm
Along with duct tape/epoxy and fiberglass kits, I ran across this item for my emergency repair kit.

Sometimes duct tape won't take the abrasion/impact and doing fiberglass repair anywhere can be messy and inconvenient.

This item solves that problem. Easy to apply, gives you a hard surface and can be removed with a heat gun for permanent repairs. Come's in different sizes too. You can heat it with an MRI heat pouch or boiling water as I would on a canoe trip.

Check out the videos. 8-)

Gorilla tape has replaced duct tape in my kit. Gorilla tape has great adhesion in water and wet conditions. 8-)

I'm a fan of Gorilla tape too BUT there are times you need something that will stand up to more abrasion/impact than even Gorilla tape will.

This is for one of those times.
