Using Tenacious Outdoor Repair Tape is easy. First, clean the area where you want to apply the tape to remove any dirt or debris. Then, cut the tape to the appropriate size. Stick the tape firmly onto the damaged area, pressing down to make sure it adheres well. Remember to wait 24 hours after applying the tape before you machine - wash the item. When storing the tape, keep it in a cool, dry place. Avoid exposing it to extreme heat or cold, as this might affect the adhesive. If you notice the tape starting to peel, just press it down again firmly. This tape is designed to last, but proper use and storage will ensure its best performance.
