Tuck tape

Post by Pete Evans »

Down in the islands where there is no one to show me other ways I've just been using tuck tape, even for big blow outs. Smaller holes just whack a piece on, bigger holes - cut away damaged area and overlap strips on the inside then strips on the outside. Never had one fail even after a year. Easy to do on site and with no gear but tape and leatherman. Seems to work.
