UV-Activated Repair Patch
This reinforced self-adhesive repair patch is activated by ultraviolet light so it works fast.
    The DurapatchUV patch is made from reinforced polyester and comes with a white backing tape over the adhesive. You just clean the damaged area with glass cleaner and select a patch large enough to cover the damage. Then firmly apply the patch over the damaged area and press out any air bubbles.
    According to the company, the patch cures in just 5 min. of direct sunlight or 50 min. in cloudy weather. The material can be applied to any surface except polypropylene and quickly cures hard as a rock. There’s no shrinkage or expansion during application or after curing.
    Durapatch is available in 4 sizes – 2 by 3-in., 3 by 6-in., 6 by 9-in., and 9 by 12 in. - although you can cut any size patch you need from a larger one. The patch can be drilled, tapped, sanded or painted in less than 1 hr. after it’s applied. It’s resistant to chemicals, solvents and oils.
    Prices range from $8.99 to $34.99 depending on patch size.
