Can this be used to repair a very tiny hole in a 100% wool sweater so that it will not get bigger?

The best thing to do is to take a needle and thread and pull the hole together the best you can. You could then take the fray check from the back and add a little to prevent further damage. The fray check dries clear but would cause the yarn to be stiff, so you wouldn't want to use it on the outside of the sweater. It should not hurt the wool. Still worth a try if you are careful and really like that sweater.

I can't see why not. It held the two sides of a rip in my leather couch that had to be a good 4 inches long. If it can do that, I can't see why it wouldn't hold stitches together. It will penetrate into the stitches, though, so be sure you are okay with it getting on to whatever is inside the stitching.

You could. I did the same thing. I think the product says it's only recommended for 1/2 inch gaps. If you pour it thick to cover 1.5 inches it will just be soft for a long time before it cures but it's better than nothing!

Yes. Just make sure to use a vertical motion. Using a circular or side by side motion is what could cause damage. I've also used it to de-pill a sweater.

No unfortunately you can't. You would need a patch kit to do that. Patch kits are really cheap and pretty easy to use. The liquid in the slime does a little to help patch a hole but the pieces of fragments in the slime do most of the hole clogging. slime is ment to be put into the tube and it works as the air rushes out and the little fragments stop up the hole as they are too large to exit through the hole.

No. This product is ment to create a water tight seal between two surfaces and remain pliable. It does not completely harden and would not work for your application. If the hole you are trying to cover is not large, you might try a silicon or latex based cocking material.

Yes, it should work well to secure yarn knots. It will stay flexible & waterproof. I use it to seal frayed ends on fabric all the time, especially on nylon straps when I cut them. Put a thin layer on, then work it in the fabric with a toothpick & wipe off excess, and when its semi-dry after several minutes, gently squeeze the fibers together with your finger tips to compress the fibers so the edge is nice 'n compact. Let dry for several days.

As a repair of a small hole, yes. If there is a lot of stress on the repair, it may fail. Make sure you remove the finish and apply the epoxy to the bare surface.

I would not trust it to patch a hole in my yacht below the water line. But, I did use it successfully to fasten the interior of my 25 year old freezer. It is a harsh environment. Zero degrees most of the time with periods when I manually defrost it causing moisture to form on all sides of the bond. Two years and still holding strong.

Hi Hollie , I am not positive if it would work ,I only used it to remove large hot pink stains off my white wool coat . The price is not bad, but I would try it on similar material and see what happens first incase it doesn't work to be safe .eaxh fabric is sensitive and if left to long may disinergrate . Good luck

No Problem, I have used and given to others who live in northern and southern California. Great mend for small holes. Not meant to be for large repairs. hope this helps.

I repaired a small hole in my cloth car seat, it worked well repairing the hole and I have since steam cleaned the area and it is holding up well. That being said, the repair is very noticeable and stands out. Color matching is very difficult and the glue (which looks and smells like white Elmer's school glue) doesn't lay very flat. It will prevent the hole from expanding though.

I used it for "thickness=12mm diameter=8-9.5mm hole". I have no idea about violin hole size. However it works well to enlarge wood hole. Let's try it with your own risk.

I used it on some silk shirts with no trouble, so I would think you'd be okay to use it. You might want to do a test patch by applying it lightly in a small area and give it a day to see if anything happens. I really think it will work great though.

The holes would need to be no more than 1/4" around. Hope this helps. It is a great tool!!!

no, it will not. Washable wool has been treated with a coating to stop it from doing just that (felting) to keep it from shrinking.

I bought this especially for cashmere, you can rub on stains and then place a sheet with four cashmere sweaters in dryer. It refreshes them, this is an inexpensive way to care for them. I used the delicate cycle, it would probably do as good with wool, I do not wear wool. It worked great with heavy silk blend sweaters. I also bought a drizzled, I used it first to remove sweater pills.
