How to fix a plastic kayak or canoe

 by jinnan_tonnix

Step 6: Heat the tape

ALL THE FOLLOWING STEPS ARE DONE ON THE INSIDE OF THE KAYAK OR CANOE.

At this stage, we have applied a strip of fabric tape to the heated plastic of the kayak.

We now need to heat the fabric tape with the hair dryer. This will melt the tape's glue so that we will end up with an excellent bond.

Keep the hair dryer over the tape for a minute or two so that the glue gets hot.
