    Anyone have good suggestion on what to use to repair small scuffs/tears in tarp?
    Ive used Gorilla tape and also liquid electrical tape in spray can. However liquid tape is too thin once dries out. Id like something that can be sprayed or brushed on like a patch. Needs to stay flexible after it dries obviously.

    You can now buy a roll of tarp material 4"x25'. Just peel and stick. Any tarp place should have it.

    Short Fuse EOD nailed it. Use the HH-66 vinyl cement with a piece of vinyl fabric. You can purchase from Tarp Stop, Duroche Tarps, Harts Tarps, etc.
