Tear MenderTTB-6-D-B Instant Fabric and Leather Adhesive, 6 oz Bottle, TG06H

Not long ago, I put my small stuffed elephant in the wash with a large blanket. When I removed it from the dryer along with the blanket, I noticed a small tear on its right ear. At first I would attempt to learn how to sew and fix its ear manually, but since I bought it used about a year ago, I wasn’t sure how long the repair would last.Then I remembered seeing Bish’s Tear Mender on a tv shopping channel a few years back and I figured that I would give it a shot. Granted I considered other fabric glues based on product reviews here on Amazon and YouTube reviews but with this product being around almost for 100 years, I figured this would be the best glue for the job.Once I received it, I put a small amount of the tear mender in a small disposable plastic bathroom cup and used a toothpick and a QTip to fix the tear on my elly’s right ear. Overall the product was easy to use and it held strong even 24 hours after initial application. It had a slight smell but not too bad as to open up a window.So about three weeks in, I decided to give my friend another washing. As you can see by the pictures, the tear mender still holds strong even after being put in the washer and dryer on warm and cold water and medium heat to dry.Overall the functionality of this product and the overall hold made it a real winner in my book. Thus if you are looking for a good way to fix your little one’s favorite stuffed toy without using a needle and thread, I highly recommend Tear Mender. It is the best way to fix a stuffed animal and any tears in fabric PERIOD!!!! It definitely does what it says on the bottle!!!!

Purchased to repair jeans in hard to sow areas like belt loops and close to the zipper. Easy to use bottle and clear instructions. This product worked very well and didn’t have a strong smell during application and no odor after dried. The bond did not take long and has held up to multiple washings.

I bought this as my other glue was running low, I like the quick cure time they claimed, as most other glues requires 24 hours. It took a few months before I was able to open this glue, still in its original plastic bag, and cut the tip to use it. I had high hope because of all the good reviews, when I shook it, I could feel something solid inside bouncing around. After a good shake, all I got was some thin liquid coming out, which had no bonding ability.I eventually cut the bottle open, and found the product had mostly cured inside the bottle into a big chunk of soft rubber-like material, surrounded by thin liquid. It was pass the return window, so I had to pitch the entire 6-oz bottle.I went on their website to check, they said it is best to use it within one year. Mine was well within that window, so I suspect it might have been old stock that had been on the shelve for some time. Unfortunately, it has no expiration date, so you really don't know what you get.I cannot attest to the good results others got, but I would suggest not to buy this until when you are ready to use it immediately, so you can exchange it if it is old stock. And once you have it open, you should plan to use it up very quickly. I bought the 6-oz bottle, in retrospect, I should have gone with the 2 oz version.

Used to fix jeans. Worked well. Holding up.

I had read many reviews on several adhesive products, looking specifically for a quality adhesive to place patches on a leather motorcycle vest. Take your time and read the small print if this is your challenge also. I highly recommend you buy only those products that 'specifically' state they are designed for leather, otherwise it's a big risk. Being totally disabled, sewing a patch on is out of the question so a viable alternative was required. Oh yes, I could take them to have each patch sewed on for a cost of from $6 to $12 EACH and I had 9. The cost of sewing them on would be more than I paid for this leather vest I bought for "grins and giggles." I don't even own a motorcycle, "BUT" I do ride around on a 3--wheeled electric scooter.I read all the reviews on this product, read the PDF from their website and watched the YouTube videos of the product in action. I knew from the outset their claims of 3 minutes to dry and 15 minutes to be washable, were just a "tad" embellished. I ended up using Tear Mender to supplement a more heavy-duty adhesive in double checking and applying it to the patch corners. I used a Q-Tip and when they say a little goes a long way, they are not kidding. With the exception of the drying times being only a 'wee' bit longer than promoted, this product works! The clean-up is a breeze as you can do it with your finger and no paint thinner or acetone are needed. I was elated this product would not allow me to glue my fingers together. Thus my reasons for not using a super glue adhesive. I would have given this product 5 stars easily had it performed exactly as promoted. It was close enough I could get away with 4 1/2 stars, if that was possible. I highly recommend Tear Mender Liquid in the cost savings 6oz. bottle, because it performs well doing double duty on fabrics and leather. Well worth the investment, as low as that is, for this type of quality performance.
