UNDERSIDING
I
Small cuts and tears in Home Mate UndersidingTm material can be repaired using a repair tape as
specific below, or equivalent. For larger cuts and tears, or for sealing double -wide units, patches
made from the same or equivalent undersiding material should be used. Cut the patch to a size at
least 2" wider than the area to be repaired, and fasten on all four sides with an adhesive tape such
as Ideal Tape Hlvi 2000, United Tape UT-145, Firstline High Tach 620, United Tape UT 20C,
Nashua 357, Shepherd CP-1, Shelter's BL #1000 and newly submitted Light Fabrication 3M tape.
Other tapes that will provide satisfactory repair and are part of current production instructions_ can
be used if the adhesion is deemed acceptable on the Home Mate UndersidingTM
Patches and/or repair tapes may also be applied with a contact adhesive, such as 3M High -
Strength #90 spray adhesive. The repair area should be clean and dry, and the patch should be cut
• to be A -minimum of 2" wider on all sides than the area to be repaired. When making patches of
the film, make sure that the "grain" of the profile of the patch is places in the same direction
whenever possible for maximum adhesion and surface contact. Two coats of the adhesive should
be sprayed on both the surface of the fihn to be repaired, and on the patch (apply the second coat
perpendicular.to the -first). Allow the adhesive 1-5 minutes to set, and then apply the patch to the
area to be repaired. Press firmly to assure proper adhesion, being -careful to avoid as many air
pockets and,wrinkles as possible.
elding patch material to the repair area using a hot iron is NOT recommended, as the welding
ocess will result in the material loosing much of its strength in the patched area. Follow either
the above methods instead.
