tonneau cover fix

[digger]

Went out to do a little taget practice yesterday. Well I had a tree limb come back on my cover and rip a hole in it. About 3 or 4 inches long. Ain't that a pisser? Don't want to buy another.

Do they make a kit or is there something I can buy to fix it with? Not too worried about the looks of it. Just a work truck.
Thanks for your help.

Duct tape?

Duct tape fixes everything

You can usually get a canvas shop to patch it cheap.....down here there's lots of Marine shops that do Bimini tops for boats....if there's something like that for bass boats or whatever fishing you guys do up there....

Yeah I had thought of duct tape. Big o' piece of silver duct tape on a black cover. Red Green would be proud.
(j/k I know they make different colors.)

I was thinking something like a patch kit. Maybe like we used to use for a bicycle tube.

Plaid, we have 3 or 4 marine shops here. Maybe I'll try one. If not maybe a top shop would fix it fairly cheap.

Thanks guys. And Merry Chrismas.

They make iron on canvas patch kits. It will last a while but nor forever. If you have a sewing machine you can reinforce it with a wide zig-zag up and down the entire patch in rows about .5 inch apart.
