Frequently Asked Questions – Ripsnorta™ Horse Rug Repair System
| How many repairs will I get? |
Each repair is individual and only an average can be stated. As a guide, the
approximate repair capabilities of a 250g unit with a 50mm width of Repair
Fabric would be 2 lineal metres, or an average of 8-12 repairs of 8cm each
in length.
| How long before it's dry? |
This depends on the ambient temperature but as a guide, 2-3 hours. However,
it is recommended to leave overnight.
| What is the compound's shelf life? |
Store in original containers in a cool dry place for maximum durability.
Yes.
Yes. The Repair Compound is water-based, non-toxic and specifically developed
for the repair of horse rugs.
| What type of rugs can it be used on? |
The Repair Compound is suitable for use on canvas, cotton, synthetic and most other commonly used materials.
| Do rugs need to be clean? |
It is recommended that the rug be as clean as is practicable. Remove as much surface dirt as possible by using an appropriate brush.
| Does the rug need to be dry? |
The repair can be achieved on a damp rug. Care should be taken in these situations.
| How strong is the repair? |
The repair compound has been developed to become an integral part of the horse
rug. Therefore it becomes as strong as the fabric it is repairing.
| Do you have to repair both sides of the rug? |
No. It is recommended to repair the outside of the rug. However, it is possible, if accessible, to facilitate the repair from the underside of the rug.
| How long does it take to do a repair? |
The more you do, the quicker you get. On average a few minutes for small repairs.
