Title: Idea for new product - Screen patch
Post by: Maxie on July 04, 2019, 07:54:11 AM

Somebody should make a patch for screens that is pre glued, just peel off the backing and put if over a hole in the screen.
I'm sure I'm not the only one that gets holes in their screens.
They make these for bicycles, same thing could work on screens, just needs to be thinner.

Sounds like a job for a thin tape with adhesive that will stand up to both water and solvents.

Patch of Wife's nylons and borrowing her Clear Finger Nail Polish does the trick. 

Dries fast and is durable. 

Only problem is.....won't help at all when the darn Newman's rip at the roller.

Super glue ultra control gel + a mesh patch is what we use. Takes some technique to get it right. Someone should make this for real.
