Patagonia Clothing: What glue to use for separated seam?

Mon, 06 Feb 2023 17:35:34 -0700

My Patagonia jacket is over 15 years old and is no longer made. The seams have separated at the underarms and along the sleeves. I am not going to use duct tape so please don’t suggest it. I need to know what glue I can use to seal the seams without damaging the fabric. This is the best lightweight jacket Patagonia ever made. It is not clingy and has no nylon. It is 100% polyester and can truly be worn in many light weather conditions. I love this jacket - please help!

Patagonia Clothing: Pull Strap Separating From MLC Bag

Thu, 04 Oct 2018 16:18:38 -0700

I have a ~15 year old MLC bag that has been through a lot. Recently washed it, did a few Tenacious Tape patches, and it's ready to get back in the rotation. While inspecting, I noticed that one of the end handle straps' attachment point was beginning to come loose. The pictures below show the general area, as well as the separation beginning in the plastic/rubber of the anchor. Any suggestions about how I might secure this?

Thanks!

Patagonia Clothing: How do I remove bike grime from outerwear?

Mon, 06 Feb 2023 17:43:29 -0700

I have a big stain on my running jacket from when I was biking & the sleeve got caught in my gears (it had snuck out of my pannier). I tried dish soap at first, which made no difference. Can’t specify if it’s grease or lube or dirt (or a combination); you know when you’re washing your bike & it just comes out all black? It’s like that.

Any thoughts?

Patagonia Clothing: How do I clean my outerwear with a bike grime stain?

My running jacket has a big black stain on the sleeve from where it got caught in my gears on a bike trip (it slipped out of my pannier). I tried dish soap at first, which made no difference. I can’t describe if it’s chain lube or grease or dirt (probably some combination); you know when you clean your chain/bike & it’s all black & grimy? It’s like that.

Any thoughts?
