FiberFix Repair Wrap - Permanent Waterproof Repair Tape 100x Stronger than Duct Tape 4" (1 Roll)

Permanently repair anything that can be 'duct taped.' Meaning if you could wrap it with tape and make a temporary fix, use this once and 'fix it for good' as my grandpa would say. It's basically a fabric 'wrap' that's impregnated with water-activated fiberglass resin. It's packaged with full instructions and even a pair of gloves because it is messy, trust me, you don't want to get it on your skin and be sure to wear your old 'painting clothes' too as grandma used to say just in case. It's black, it's sticky and it's not coming out of your clothes.Open the package, soak the wrap in room temperature water (approximately 70-degrees) for 12-15 seconds to activate then WRAP tightly and be sure to overlap until you have several layers (like you would duct tape). Allow to cure. Sets up hard as a rock in under 30 minutes.I used two "large" packs to fix a plastic hose reel, the entire reel spindle (the part the hose wraps around) for whatever reason cracked and split in half over the winter. Not exaggerating, I had 2 separate pieces. It's about 6 inches in diameter so I needed 2 packs to get the 4-5 layers needed for strength. I wasn't sure if it just looked like a good repair or if it really was one that would last, I can now say the 150 ft of 3/4" landscape hose (it's heavy if you don't know) is being fully supported by a reel that once lost all structural integrity. This repair is going on 2 months now and holding as strong as ever. I've also used it for fixing leaks in pool pressure-side pipes that I was told were 'unfixable' that would have to be cut out and replaced. Not a drip in 5 years, I'd say with this the unfixable becomes fixable.Great stuff, used to be in big box stores. I just wish it were a little easier to locate, thankful that Amazon came through for me once again.

I bought a package for a specific purpose. I have a discontinued Black and Decker rechargeable string trimmer and four rechargeable batteries for it. Replacing it with a similar product with four additional batteries would be pricey. The trimmer was designed with built in obsolescence. The shaft between the handle and the trimming mechanism is made of two plastic poles attached in the middle. Of course after a year of use the two parts broke apart, making it unusable.but mechanically still working. Duct tape wasn't sturdy enough and I definitely tried.I bought the 4 inch wrap since it would need to hold together two pole pieces with heavy working parts at each end. I applied it as the instructions showed, did no preparation of the surface (none was mentioned in the instructions), moistened the wrap and wrapped it the center. The instructions said 15 minutes to set, but I let it set overnight.I've since used it for a total of four battery charges and the center shaft with the mend in the middle is strong and sturdy. I'm really happy with the wrap and would highly recommend it for similar use.

I bought a cheap roll bar cover for my jeep that did not fit and I had to make some cuts. I didn't like the way back duct tape looked on the repaired areas, so I thought I would try Fiber Fix, as it resembled the black denim texture of the roll bar cover. I have used two rolls of this stuff. The first I bought from the local True Value Hardware store and did not pay attention to the expiration date. I could not get it to stick. I eventually used double sided tape underneath it to get it to work. It did harden nicely. I did not have enough to finish the job, so I ordred another roll from Amazon. On the second roll, I did not use the gloves as they had been unnecessary when using the first roll - HUGE MISTAKE. The second roll was much easier to install and I did not need the double sided tape underneat at all. However, my hands are covered in black gunk that won't come off. Roll bar looks great tho!

I didn't know what to think when I first saw this in the store. If this could do what it promised it could do, then it would be a miracle product. Well, this thing is pretty amazing.I bought the 4" and 2" version because I needed to fix multiple things. For your reference, here are the following sizes:• 1" width 40" length• 2" width, 50" length• 4" width, 60" lengthI had a broken wooden bed frame; one of the slats started snapping and I had to put a support under it so it wouldn't completely bend and break. I got this in the hopes that I could straighten it again and reinforce it so that it would last longer (because I like my bed and didn't want to buy a new one).— PREP —Before you open a pack, make sure everything is prepped to apply it. That means material surfaces should be prepped (cleaned, and sanded if necessary), a bowl of cold water ready, gloves are on, scissors are available, and all the broken pieces are there.— TO APPLY —This thing activates with moisture. Once a pack has opened, the humidity in the air will (slowly) start activating it, but will really start to work once dipped in water. You must put on the gloves. Think of it as working directly with super glue; you don't want your hands touching the tape when it's wet.• Put on gloves• Dip in water• Apply immediately to what you want fixing• Wait ten minutes for it to dry— SUMMARY —My bed slat no longer bends and the FiberFix seems to be holding it well. Visit their website and if you're not convinced by their entertaining product demonstration video, they offer a 100% guarantee. Recommended.— TIP —- Once you open a package you have to use all of it. If you happen to be really quick, you could *maybe* fix two things, but it's meant to fix one item (I did however use one package to fix a floor lamp in two places).- The first wrap should be the tightest so take your time on that first wrap; all the other layers build on that.- Dipping in cold water will give you a little more time before it hardens.

Used this to fix an old metal gutter that was rusty and leaking. It has worked really well.My advice is to be super-prepared before getting it wet. Measure twice and think through how you are going to apply it before use, what tools you’ll need and someone to hand things to you, if it involves being up a ladder.

Perché per i prodotti venduti in Italia non sono allegate le istruzioni in italiano. Il prodotto una volta aperto se non utilizzato entro 5 minuti diventa come la pietra. Questa avvertenza era specificata solo in inglese. Purtroppo non conosco l'inglese e non ho potuto utilizzare il nastro non l'ho utilizzato subito dopo l'apertura ed diventato inutilizzabile . Undici e passa euro buttati nel cestino.
