You are welcome!

[@edmartinez777]

Thx bro for the info 🙏

[@TiagoRuivo]

What about adding some drop of glue after the patch on the outerside? What's your opinion about that?

[@harlemkitesurfing]

The glue will not bend with the material and therefore will not add value to the procedure. So better to use a high-quality adhesive tape in the first place.
