Gluing with Patches
If there is dampness around the area to be patched, then dry the area with a hot air fan or heat gun. Any
loose coating should be cut back with scissors.
1. Support the damaged area on a flat, solid platform.
This platform should be strong enough to support the
fabric (flat) and allow the patch to be rolled once it is
in place.
2. Scrub the damaged area with an abrasive pad
dampened with solvent (isopropyl rubbing alcohol is
recommended). Scrub vigorously to remove the cured
surface. The area should be clean and dry with a dull
matte finish.
3. Wipe with a rag, dampened with solvent, to remove any residue from cleaning. Check to see if the
area is totally clean and all coated surfaces and edges are dull. If not, repeat the cleaning. This is
critical for a good glue bond.
The damaged area should be
supported on a flat, solid platform.
Caution
Solvent will damage the fabric if too much is used or if the fabric is left exposed to solvent residue.
