Pros & Cons
Pros
The gear aid seam grip is fantastic for sealing and reinforcing seams on your tent. Will definitely be buying it again for any sealing needs.
The use cases are limitless. It's not cheap, but it works. Pleased with product.
This glue is great for waterproofing and locking stitching into place. It adheres ultra strong, but normal surface prep is recommended like cleaning and scuffing non-fabrics.
Cons
Still felt tacky, so dried some more. Absolutely useless. You have no way of holding the seam together unless the glove eventually just stick to the cooler.
Highlights
Quality
I resealed the seams with this product
It was super easy to apply with the help of a friend and has given me a bone dry tent ever since
Do not let anything else come in contact with the adhesive until it has completely cured i
They smelled quite strong still so i left them in a back room with the window cracked
Packaging/appearance
5when reusing before recapping with above procedure make sure tube opening is flat and clean
It is very sticky and one tube got a hole in the side
I accidentally cut a fairly big hole out of my sons new rain jacket when i was cutting it out of the package
If you are in a rush you can dry the glue quickly by adding a little talcum powder
Competitiveness
Used this product for repairing a puncture in a floatie
One tube almost treated all the seams on a 9x9 tent plus the seams of the rain fly
Ended up using it less than half of the time
