Can I super glue a piece of fabric on my nylon rain coat, and it will be ok?

My favourite rain coat is damaged, it was burnt at the back, and the only thing i can think of to fix it is to glue a piece of fabric with super glue on the burn and maybe sew it after to make stronger. Do you think it will be ok? It is a serious question honestly.


Use tear mender:

"Tear Mender is a natural latex cement that bonds to most fabrics. It is waterproof and U.V. resistant. Although Tear Mender touts itself as a fabric cement, we found its uses more impressive on nylon, rubber, naugahyde, etc. It seems to leave a visible shiny glaze on softer, more absorbent fabrics. We therefore recommend Tear Mender for your tents, boat covers, sleeping bags and rain gear. The Tear Mender people (Val-A) also sell a Tent-Mender and Jean-Mender kit, complete with fabric and glue. Tear Mender smells like dirty diapers because it has a high ammonia content, and although it is only slightly worse for you than changing dirty diapers, it should be used in a well ventilated area. Also, people with allergies to latex should not touch or use this product. Tear-Mender takes about 15 to 30 minutes to dry depending on application, and holds quite well on most synthetic materials. It remains flexible, and claims to survive extreme hot or cold temperature. Tear-Mender is a
vailable through their web-site (you can even request their instructional video!) , Television Suppliers, and some camping stores."

Good Luck!

If you can bet hold of some Wonder Web, that should sort all your problems out - it is like double sided sticky tape for fabric (sticks by using an iron on it) I would recommend getting a piece of fabric as close a match to your damaged coat as possiblle, and sticking it to the inside of the garment (not the outside) That way it will just cover the burn area without looking messy with too much extra fabric.Superglue will not work as it is not wash resistant, and puckers and leaves little bubbles and creases that you can never get out on the fabric.

If you're going to do something like that, at least use Seam Grip or similar waterproofing adhesive intended for rainwear.

Probably a better choice would be to take it to an alterationist and get them to repair it properly with fabric.

Some Seam-Grip like products:

so long as the glue don't melt the plastic, it should be ok, try the glue on a corner piece, and see if it melts it, if not, it should be ok.

No super glue causing a burning reaction to clothes and make them start to have a smoke like vapor also it will harden and will just end up fallinf off.

no go and buy you some fabric glue . works great good luck .

yes, i have done it with a black nylon raincoat, worked fine. it depends though how big the hole is.

use fabric glue!
