Ever wonder how to repair your jeep soft top or convertible soft top? GEAR AID offers the Aquaseal FD Soft Top Repair Kit. This all inclusive repair kit includes everything you need to make repairs to jeep soft tops and convertible soft tops. With two repair options (sewing repair or no-sewing repair), we make repairing convertible tops a breeze.

To start, you'll need to get yourself this repair kit and follow these simple instructions for an easy and permanent repair.

NO-SEW REPAIR OPTION

STEP 1: Clean both sides of the repair area with isopropyl alcohol. This will remove any dirt, residue or body oils which may prevent a good bond.

STEP 2: Trim any fraying edges with scissors. 

STEP 3: Apply a piece of Tenacious Tape over the rip, tear or hole. Make sure the Tenacious Tape extends at least 1'' beyond the rip, tear or hole perimeter. When cutting your Tenacious Tape patch round the corners. When applying the patch, smooth out any bubbles and ensure the edges lay flat. 

STEP 4: Once you've applied the Tenacious Tape on one side of the repair, you will need to apply the Aquaseal FD Repair Adhesive on the other side of the repair. Simply paint a thin layer of Aquaseal over the repair area, extending at least 1/2'' in all directions of the rip, tear or hole. 

STEP 5: Apply another piece of Tenacious Tape over the Aquaseal FD adhesive. Again, make sure the Tenacious Tape patch extends at least 1'' beyond the rip, tear or hole perimeter. When cutting the patch round corners and when applying it, smooth out any bubbles and ensure the edges lay flat. Allow 24 hours for the adhesive to cure.

SEWING REPAIR OPTION

*For high stress areas, you may want to consider sewing the jeep soft top repair for added strength

STEP 1: Clean both sides of the repair area with isopropyl alcohol. This will remove any dirt, residue or body oils which may prevent a good bond.

STEP 2: Trim any fraying edges with scissors. 

STEP 3: Sew the tear shut.

STEP 4: Paint a thin layer of Aquaseal over your sewing repair, extending at least 1/2'' in all directions of the sewing repair.

STEP 5: Apply a piece of Tenacious Tape over the Aquaseal adhesive. Make sure the Tenacious Tape patch extends at least 1'' beyond the rip. When cutting the patch round corners and when applying it, smooth out any bubbles and ensure the edges lay flat.

STEP 6: On the opposite side of the repair, paint another thin layer of Aquaseal over the tear (opposite side of your sewing repair). 

STEP 7: Apply another piece of Tenacious Tape over the Aquaseal adhesive. Again, make sure the Tenacious Tape patch extends at least 1'' beyond the tear. When cutting the patch round corners and when applying it, smooth out any bubbles and ensure the edges lay flat. Allow 24 hours for the adhesive to cure.
