Many truck owners sooner or later face a tarpaulin repair problem. Often, the search for entities that repair truck tarpaulins begins only when a large number of such cases accumulated, or after some major damage or emergency. Apart from the reasons for tarpaulin damage, it can be simple inattention or bad intentions of another person.
What does such a repair look like? After cleaning the surface, a separate piece of PVC material that will serve as a patch is rolled by a hot roller on damaged area. On the one hand, that’s simple, but it requires to have both a piece of PVC material (sometimes quite large) and a hot roller.
What are the disadvantages of this method of repair?
– an appropriate tool is required;
– a piece of material is require;
– the appearance will depend on the color convergence of the patch and tarpaulin.
Usually this type of repair is done by third parties and do not involve a transport company or driver. High repair costs should also be considered.

Inflatable boats have many advantages. They are convenient to use, easy to transport and store. However, there is one important drawback – vulnerability to damages. If a wooden boat does not afraid of bumps and scratches, then a PVC model can seriously suffer from a banal snag in a pond.

About Ulow Liquid PVC
This substance was developed for the repair of PVC products, cordura, synthetic leather, neoprene, trilaminate, various variations of textiles. The key to efficiency is the coincidence of the molecular weight of liquid PVC with the mass of materials that are being repaired.
Repair of PVC boat using a liquid product is carried out in several stages. First, the surface of the product is cleaned. After that, liquid PVC is applied, which melts the top layer of material. As a result of chemical exposure a new, durable surface is formed. One can use the boat two to four hours after the application. The repaired area reaches the maximum strength after 24 hours.

Diving in the mysterious underwater world requires preparation and special equipment; otherwise, you can pay for non-compliance with its harsh laws. What if your favorite wetsuit is damaged and you don’t want to cancel the planned event?
It is much more convenient to repair diving suit at home. Repair of diving suits in specialized services is quite expensive. Restoration will take a lot of time and it is unknown whether the result will suit you. For this reason, it is better to stick up the wetsuit yourself and save time and money.
What damages are most often on diving suits and how to deal with them
Most often, it is scratches, cuts, severed seams and torn pieces of fabric. All these shortcomings are eliminated with specialized adhesives. The disadvantage of such adhesives is that a scar is formed on the reconstructed length of fabric, which can reduce elasticity, thermoregulation, waterproofing and appearance. It seems too many cons, is not it?

Although we are constantly winning the hearts of customers who had no previous experience with our production, this time we have managed to pleasantly surprise people who have already learned the innovation of liquid PVC. We have several arguments for this:
On February 15-18, we hosted at our trade fairs at our southern neighbors in the Czech Republic at For Fishing. The decision on participation in the fair was made a few days before their started, at the Rybomeria fair in Poznan we heard many positive opinions and recommendations from our Czech friends – Martin, thank you!

Probably every angler had situations in which broken equipment or pierced inflatable boat not only negatively affected the efficiency of fishing, but perhaps completely prevented the continuation of fishing. The are many reasons for this type of damage: sharp stone in the water or on the shore, rodents in the garage or simply carelessness, as well as hundreds of other factors, more or less rational.
Contemporary manufacturers compete in the production of the most comfortable foams used for water sports, which allows for a huge variety of choices – from thin children’s foams to swimming in warm water through costumes with thicker material (layer up to 1 cm) and ending with dry neoprene suits. Unfortunately, many people experience a situation in which great holiday fun is interrupted or completely prevented by damage to the neoprene coveralls. Most often this happens during dressing / taking off your outfit or as a result of other unlucky events.
Then, abrasions, cracks, holes are created, which causes loss of the basic usable property, that is maintaining the body temperature. Equipment for water sports, including wetsuits are expensive, so after their damage many people decide to repair them in specialized companies or by themselves.
