Hi everyone -

I managed to put a couple of small holes in the rear starboard side of my cover last weekend (backed it in a little too close to the garage)....

What kind of patching do you suggest that I do?  I am not good with a needle, so if something needs to be sewed on, I guess that I will have to take it somewhere...   what kind of patch should I get though?

Thanks.

Try some of the iron-on denim patch material like some folks use to patch jeans...

Yeah I agree with tiggerman, that sounds like that might doo the trick.

If that doesn’t work, take it to you local upholstery shop.  They should be able to sew in a good patch relatively cheap.  It’s nice to see someone else from Texas.  What lakes do you go to.  Lake Travis is near you isn’t it.  That’s a cool lake.  Possum Kingdom Lake is the closest good lake to me and its an hour and a half away.  Lake Texoma is about the same distance.  We have a local lake (Lake Arrowhead) which is only 12 miles away but its not a very good lake.

So any luck getting this fixed yet?
