What to Do With Your Rep Kit

Tools

Being equipped with the right tools is critical when in the field. This kit was created with that in mind and contains all the basic hand tools necessary to repair equipment in the field. The tools are made of steel and are only a small amount of plastic to endure the use. The kit includes a canvas zippered pouch for the coalcracker's tools, a twist awl, reamer and cutting shears and Gimlets (5MM). It also comes with a bottle of coalcracker oil, illustrated instructions, a wooden spool, a reamer, and twisted Awl.

You can pick a case for this kit (case price is above) or order the tools for yourself.

Repair Patches

If you've got holes or two in your gears, consider adding adhesive patches to your rep kit. These patches are made of high-performance adhesives that are applied to a tough polyurethane backing that lets a tear heal under pressure. The patches are available in color or clear versions. They offer durability against punctures, as well as moisture, sunlight saltwater, temperature extremes and.

If your kit doesn't include any of the items above it is possible to consider adding a water-proof Aquaseal wader sealant. This water-tight glue can be applied to fabrics, plastics, metals and other materials for permanent repair. It's ideal for repairs to drysuits and may be applied in the field. Let the sealant cure for up to 12 hours before using the repaired equipment.

The essential field fabric kit for tents, packs, and rainwear made of silicone-impregnated polyester. The kit comes with one Clean Tape patch and a repair swatch of sil-nylon and a 1/4 ounce tube of Goretex Sil-Fix repair adhesive & sealant and brush. To use, apply patch over a smooth, clean surface of the area that has been damaged with a minimum of 1/2 inch overlap. Remove the release paper from the patch surface and rub adhesive with moderate pressure (adhesive side facing down).

Surface preparation is essential for successful repairs; oils on shoes or boots sunblocks or solvents like Acetone can affect adhesion. For the best results, apply Seam Grip alone or with Cotol-240 Cure Accelerator to speed curing up to 2 hours.

Adhesive patches

If you're on the trail but don't have time for the full repair of your vulcaniser this adhesive patch can get you back on the saddle without the wait. Apply the self-adhesive patch and roll it over.

Use the tube-scuffer for roughening the surface. This will aid the glue stick. Spread a thin layer of glue on the patch, covering an area at least as big as the patch itself. Wait a few minutes for the glue to harden before pressing the patch down and holding it firmly in place.
