Tear-Aid Patch - Type B
- The Tear-Aid Type B is for vinyl/PVC ONLY. The oils in these materials and coatings require the special adhesive in Type B.
- Patching is oh so easy. Select the right size patch for the job. Clean the repair surface with an alcohol prep pad or rubbing alcohol. When the area is dry, just peel the backing off the Tear-Aid patch and stick it on. No mess, no muss, no fuss.
- The unique adhesive on Type B resists the oils in vinyl that cause other adhesives to soften and turn gummy in sunlight.
- Available in kit form and in rolls 3"W x 5'L.
- Patches are airtight and watertight, even under pressure when stretched.
- The patches are see-through, so the color of your gear shows right through.
- It's UV resistant and conforms to irregular surfaces.
- Don't throw away that gear - patch it with Tear-Aid.
- Patch dry bags, rain gear, air mattresses, water toys, luggage, raft seats, etc. The list is endless.

Comments about Tear-Aid Patch - Type B:
We have an inflatable dingy which leaked water along floor. Outside of a very expensive repair at local shop we could not find any product that worked on the PVC material. The Tear-Aid Type B tape has sealed the leaks and appears to be holding up.

- Tear-Aid Patch - Type B
Q:
Is this the product to use on the Saturn boats?
Thanks
MikeAsked on 9/16/2012 by Mike from Edmonds, Wa.3 answers
A:
I believe all Saturn boats are made with a PVC-coated material. Tear-Aid Type B is specifically for PVC/vinyl materials.Answered on 9/17/2012 by Clyde from NRSVERIFIED BUYER
A:
Yes, the Saturn boats are PVC and require the PVC-specific Tear-AidAnswered on 9/18/2012 by AnonymousVERIFIED BUYER
A:
For small holes this product works surprisingly well and is really quick. You only use the Type B if your boat is PVC not Hyplon or other. I think saturn inflatables are PVC, but I am not positive. If it is Hyplon you need Type A, which I have not used.
