Pretty much all the internal tape on my brolly seams has come away and it is now leaking.

What is the best/easiest/cheapest way of repairing this please.

Probably cost you the price of a new brolly wouldn't it!?

I'd probably have a go at painting the seams with thinned down Aquasure, inside and out.

Hot melt tape, 2 ply 25mm and its dead easy.

The mcnett seamgrip/stormsure is 100% but takes ages to set so not easy to use on surfaces that you cant lay flat.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
