Yes, I do mean the stuff you use between your teeth. Use a needle with a large eye and waxed floss to mend holes in fly masks and sheets - works really well and lasts.

I learned this from a friend.

Cheers.

I've used this for years too. It works well for just about any type of blanket repair and for re-fixing tabs on saddlepads and the like.

Yes! It does indeed work very well! I actually used it a couple of years ago to sew some satin to the underside of a fly sheet that was rubbing, as the thread I had kept breaking. Good stuff!
