SunPatch fabric patches, crafted from non-PFAS solution-dyed acrylic, offer a dependable way to repair or reinforce marine fabrics, awnings, umbrellas, and other outdoor fabric materials. With pressure-sensitive, heat-activated adhesive backing, they’re made to complement popular Sunbrella fabrics, such as Linen Tweed showcased here.
Whether fixing tears, covering holes, or adding a moisture barrier, these patches are easy to apply with a heat press, iron, or hot air gun and roller. The two-step adhesive system lets you reposition the patch before activating it with heat. Explore the wide range of SunPatch colors designed for lasting durability and top-notch repairs. Don’t replace it, SunPatch it!
Best Practices & Recommendations:- Trim to size with rounded corners which prevents catching and lifting over time.
- Be sure your application surface is clean and dry before applying SunPatch.
- Avoid heat setting temperatures above 220 degrees Fahrenheit to prevent shrinkage and adhesive seepage.
- For best results, apply heat for 1 minute and let cool for several hours before use in the field. For two-sided patching projects, apply heat for 30 seconds per side.
- All patches are run in the warp direction (length of the roll). Be sure to match the direction of the SunPatch and original fabric for a less-noticeable application.
Product Note: SunPatch™ by Fabric Ingenuity is designed to maintain its original physical properties when stored properly for up to 24 months. It is important to keep SunPatch™ stored in ambient temperatures not to exceed 80° F in its original packaging.
