A club member has two 1/2 by 3/4 inch rips in the top material. He has extra material from when his father installed the hood over 20 years ago. I am looking for a good, flexible glue that some one has had success with. The holes are right at the top bow. Thanks for the help.

3M Fast Tack always works well.

The strongest and most flexible I've found is GO2 made by Loctite and I find it at Big Y markets but should be available at many retailers. The best test was on a leather chair arm and it's held up well. I've also used it on automotive applications and it sets up clear and very strong.

E6000 OR go to auto parts store and look for vinyl seat glue - meant to glue the seams back together on the old vinyl car seats that eventually split.
