Common applications for KEVLAR includes 49 fabrics such as: kayaks, canoes, high-speed boats, aircraft fuselage panels, pressure vessels, sporting equipment, wind turbines and much more.
Kevlar® is a material formed by combining para-phenylenediamine and terephthaloyl chloride. Aromatic polyamide (aramid) threads are the result. They are further refined, by dissolving the threads and spinning them into regular fibres. Kevlar® when combined with layers of resin results in a ‘rigid’ material that is light and has twenty times the strength of steel.

Featured positive reviews:
Worked really well with the 10" scissors. One issue is that the edges of the fabric have a thread running along, so the edges of the patch are going to be raised unless you trim them off. I think this is going to be a cheaper option instead of the repair kit in the long term, but time will tell.
