Bought some a few years ago and used it once up at Cania Gorge (day trip to kroombit Tops) when a power steering hose split. Got me home alright so cant complain...2004 V6 Grande. BLACK - -
I've always been a fan of the silver tape... It fixes anything.
Fixed a broken air line on the seeder with it yesterday, and fixed a blown top cap on it too. Does a good job for a couple of dollars a roll.
If silver tape can fix these things, I'm sure the repair tape would have to work too.2011 150series GXLComment

Hutch,
It's good stuff IMO, I've even used it to repair a split in the garden hose after I ran over it in the car. Have also used it on a leaky connector in the fuel line on the boat, did the trick until I could do a proper repair.
Cheers,

Gorilla tape.....can fix anything.
Being American you never have too much Duct Tape anyway but the Gorilla tape is the best. I don't have anymore at the moment....all the cats in the neighborhood took it

Most Repco stores have it Hutch. Try the Albion store on the way home from work. And don't forget if you have RACQ to flash your card for a further 10% off

Hehe, I also got 'suckered' into buying this stuff back in the 2009 June show.
The last time I used it was more than a year ago. I fixed several splits in a fiberglass tent pole, which I always meant to replace. Then as we erected the big-ol family tent this past weekend, I remembered how I have been meaning to replace that damaged pole! Camped at Moreton with gale force winds, I thought I'd be in trouble, but miraculously it survived without a problem.
I've also used it as a nut to hold my sand flag in place. The original nut rattled loose somewhere across the Simpson and the thread was stripped. I crossed 1.5 times with my makeshift nut, and it worked a treat.
My UHF antenna started to show some splitting after too many kms of corrugations. Again, out came the rescue tape. I keep that antenna as a spare, stored under the passenger seat.
There's been a couple of other odds and sods too.
I love the stuff!
