I remember back in the dark ages when I was still fairly young I had unknowingly run out of patch material and was going on a shoot. It was a Sunday and back then you found NOTHING open on a Sunday except a Church! So I started pumping my poor little brain and ran across a solution that was pretty much perfect! An old worn out Ace Bandage! Not the really stretchy stuff like they make today but more like a wrap. That stuff worked fantastic! I think they still make the stuff but it's used more for a bandage covering now and not really stretchy. You guys might give that stuff a look. Could turn out cheaper and work really well. Been years since I was into PRB shooting so I have no clue as to cost and availability of good patch material nowadays. I know back then it was hard to find and we usually used worn out T-Shirts for donor material. The wife would have had a small fit if I'd cut up another T-Shirt to literally burn up for nothing!
