My JRB tarp is ripstop polyester, silicone-coated on both sides.
I have only seen one recommendation for patching, if it should get a hole or tear.
That is to apply silicon, then a patch of Tenacious Tape, on both sides.
Sounds like field repair could be a challenge.
It could be managed but not sure how to carry a very small amount of silicon in my light kit, just in case.
Guess I'll just keep an eye out for widow makers and dead limbs, and hope I continue to be so fortunate as to not have a hole.
