Seam tape?

Seam tape? - 09/13/09 09:18 PM

I'm considering having my company logo embroidered on a gore-tex pro shell jacket. Of course, this will defeat the wind/waterproofness for the embroidered area.

Is gore-tex seam tape( or its equivalent) something I can buy and use to seal the area on my own? Or do I need to find a professional to re-seal that area? If I need a professional, any recommendations?

Thanks!

you should be able to seal it effectively using Seam Grip or something similar on the inside of the jacket.

Yes you can buy seam tape. It can be applied with a household iron. Or you can use a liquid sealer. The tape is more permanent. Both are available at: Seattle Fabrics

Penny, one of the moderators on this site is the only professional I know who would be capable of this type of alteration. There are probably others, but I would suggest her based on the excellaant work she has done for me.
