[pct-l] silnylon repair

[chwillet@xxxxxxxxxxx (Christopher Willett)]

Hi all,

I was wondering how I can repair a tear or break in a silnylon tarp (or
bag, for that matter).  I'm told that a traditional approach of duck tape
and sealant (like Freesole) will not work since silnylon is too slick for
them to stick.  Is there some sort of patching compound that will stick to
silnylon?  The seam sealant that I have would, in no way, hold a tear
together.

Chris
