Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

My husband asked me to get this for him. He is a construction worker, who is constantly tearing holes in his jeans. I read the reviews, then questioned him to make sure this is what he wanted. He told me that he has used it before, it works, so he wanted some more. Again, I was skeptical, but purchased it anyways. When this stuff arrived in the mail, I got his jeans with the holes in them ready to fix. I read the directions, pretty basic. First, shake the bottle to mix it up. Next, apply the tear mender on the patch. It also states that if it is a difficult tear, then you can apply the tear mender on both the patch and around the tear. Last, let it dry for 3 minutes. Pretty basic directions, so I was ready to give it a try. Shook the bottle up. I then decided that all of his tears looked pretty bad, so I thought it was best to apply the tear mender on both the patch and around the tears. I was surprised at how runny the tear mender is. I figured that it would be thick, like glue, but it is not. It is very easy to apply, almost to the point of messy, since it sometimes comes out faster than expected. I applied it first to the patch, then around the tear. I used my fingers to make sure that the patch was glued completely around all of the edges. If it got on my fingers, I didn't need to worry, as it pretty much just rubs right off. I then just needed to wait. The tear mender worked perfectly! All of his patches stuck without problems. My husband and I were both very pleased with how well it worked. My husband wanted me to purchase two bottles, but I purchased only one (since I wasn't sure how well it would work). I was able to repair five huge tears, in three pairs of jeans, with more than half a bottle of tear mender left for future tears.
