This all-purpose outdoor sealer won the Backpacker Magazine's Editors' Choice Gold Award for 2002!

  • Use this handy seam-sealer on tents, backpacks, overmitts, gaiters, foulweather gear and more, or to repair small rips and holes
  • All seams must be sealed in order for item to be totally waterproof
  • Easy to use--simply squeeze lightly and draw tube across seam; seal seams from the inside whenever possible
  • Before use, clean surfaces with Seam Grip Pre-Cleaner (sold separately) or isopropyl alcohol
  • 1-oz. tube is generally enough to seal all the main floor and rainfly seams on the average two-person backpacking tent

Made in USA.

Comments about McNett Seam Grip Seam Sealer:

I've carried a gear repair kit for hundreds of miles of hiking. The kit doesn't weigh much but before each trip I'd look at the kit, with the Seam Seal and question the weight. Half way into a recent Desolation trip, miles from a road on our third night out, we reached camp and on checking my boots, I noticed the soles coming loose! Not now! I'm miles from help! I didn't panic but I did pull out the Seam Seal. Following instructions I glued each boot sole and clamped them with rocks. Crossing my fingers I waited. The next day, viola! Boot soles are intact. Causiously I proceeded on the trip, checking the boots. The soles held to the end and I no longer question the added weight of this item. I now don't leave home without it.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about McNett Seam Grip Seam Sealer:

I have used this stuff to:
- Re-attach separating soles on shoes
- Patch holes in the uppers of kids' shoes
- Patch a hole in an inflatable rubber ball
- Repair rubber jacket on audio/speaker wires
- Fix a cracked PVC fitting on a sprinkler line
- Repair a cracked chain cover of a kid's bike
- Repair cracked hockey helmet (well, sort of)
It works like nothing else on soft plastics and rubber (things like tents, I guess). It doesn't generally work as well on really hard plastics, especially if the plastic will be subject to a lot of bending/flexing. So some cracks on my hockey helmet cracked again. I was surprised it worked on the PVC pipe, but I'm glad I gave it a try.
Just buy some; you will use it, maybe even on camping gear.
