5.0 out of 5 stars Wow February 14, 2009
I wasn't expecting this stuff to be very effective. I have a pair of jeans I really like that were patched/reinforced (on the inside) with iron-on stuff. After several washings, the patches were coming loose, but the fabri-tac really glued them back down tight. The jeans have been through the wash a couple of times now and the patches are holding-up well. I also have a big cushion for an teak outdoor loveseat. The stitching was rotting and the whole thing was coming apart. It took several days of gluing different sections, but I was able to put it all back together again. The new seams are a bit stiff, but they're very strong. I used very little of the product for these two jobs. I'm impressed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabro-Tac July 11, 2010

I have been a "crafter"-"sewer" for over 60 years and this is my favorite item in my sewing basket!!! It dries flexible, clear and launders well. It tack fabric together instantly but will pull apart, to readjust, if needed. MAC

5.0 out of 5 stars Fast drying and surprisingly permanent June 16, 2010
This fabric glue is the best I've ever found. I've tried a couple of others and haven't been pleased with the results because they don't stand up to washing and start peeling off far too soon. The fabri-tac does actually seem to be permanent or as permanent as a fabric glue is going to get. I even used it to install zippers on the pockets of several jumper dresses and they are all still holding up after multiple times through the wash. The only thing negative is that it can come out of the bottle in globs and it dries extremely fast so it's very important to be quite speedy and precise when using it so I probably wouldn't recommend it for childrens crafts or similar uses.

5.0 out of 5 stars Does The Job April 20, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
NO MORE SEWING
Beacon Fabri-Tak does an excellent job of bonding fabrics, without soaking through. For guys, its a Godsend---no more stapling torn pants pockets or hemming pant-legs with duck-tape. I've used Fabri-Tak to hem pants, to apply patches to holes in work-clothes, to apply uniform patches, even to make up straps and belts with webbing and plastic buckles. For repair patches, it works better than iron-on patches. The only real major limit is seams which come under alot of stress, such as pants inseams (i.e., crotches) (including zippers), or children's play clothes.

TACKING
Another use is to make difficult sewing jobs easier. For example, you can "tack" material together for a rough fitting, adjust to a tighter fit, and then sew the seams. Or you can assemble a garment with Fabri-Tac, and then sew it easier (i.e., with simple stitches rather than multiple rows or complicated stitches).

FOR COSTUMES
Although no other reviewers mention it, Fabri-Tac is ideal for assembling costumes which will only be worn a few hours and probably never be washed.

FOR UNIFORM OR DECORATIVE PATCHES
1) Mark the target area. I suggest using a soft pencil (or water soluble felt-tip marker) to mark underneath the edges of the patches (where the marks won't show) For round patches, mark the orientation, i.e., the exact top and/or exact bottom. Do NOT wash the garment immediatly after applying patches.
2) Apply a light bead of glue 3/16 to 1/4" from the edge around the circumference, and then thin parallel lines about 3/8" apart across the interior which corresponding to embrodered parts of the patch.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected May 17, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase
After reading the other reviews, I was expecting a kind of "super glue" that worked on fabric. This adhesive may work fine if you are already planning to sew the fabric after using the adhesive. I was hoping for an adhesive that would hold patches on clothing without sewing. This adhesive did not work that way. Any fabrics that I glued together pulled back apart relatively easily. I'm sure it's a good adhesive to hold fabric while you are sewing it, but it didn't work for my purposes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Repairs Jeans March 19, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
I have been using this to repair my jeans when they start to get frayed but haven't yet developed a big hole. I glue the repair cloth on from the rear. It seems to stand up well to the washing machine.

4.0 out of 5 stars Same as Mighty Mend It November 3, 2008
Buy Fabri-Tac at a lower cost, not Mighty Mend It at the infomercial price of $29.00. TV and marketing always gets you when you don't shop and research. Infomercials bring us back to "caveat emptor" -- let the buyer beware. Both products cannot be dry cleaned, and are not great for leather or heavy upholstry.
