Common questions

How long does the repair last?

FabPatch is designed to last the life of the garment. The adhesive bonds directly to the fabric fibres and holds through normal wear and washing. Stretch is machine washable at up to 40°C. Allow 3 days before the first wash so the adhesive fully sets.

What fabrics does Stretch work on?

Denim, jersey, fleece, cotton, nylon and woven and stretch fabrics. So activewear, kids clothing, jeans, jackets, backpacks, and trainers. Works for both external visible repairs and discrete internal repairs. For wool and knitwear use the Merino range. For heavy outdoor gear, tents or raincoats use the Extreme range.

Can I cut the patch to size?

Yes. all patches can be cut to any shape or size with scissors, keeping a minimum dimension of 3cm for sufficient adhesive bonding. This makes one pack suitable for multiple repairs of different sizes.

What if the hole is large?

Place a small piece of fabric, sandwiched between the patch and the garment repair or place a patch on the outside and one inside the fabric.

What's the difference between Stretch and Extreme?

Stretch is water resistant — suited to general clothing, activewear, denim, and backpacks. Extreme is fully weatherproof — built for tents, boots, raincoats, and gear that gets heavily wet or takes hard wear. If in doubt: heavily wet or hard-wearing → Extreme. Everything else → Stretch.

How do I care for the garment after patching?

Wait 3 days before the first wash as the adhesive needs time to fully set. Machine wash up to 40°C, no bleach or fabric softener. Safe to tumble dry and iron.

Can I use it for internal (hidden) repairs?

Yes. Stretch patches work well applied from the inside for a discrete repair. The material is soft enough to sit against skin comfortably.
