I've always assumed duct tape could be counted on for making emergency tent or backpack repairs, but I just tested it and it turns out duct tape doesn't stick to silnylon worth a crap. I've been carrying it for that purpose for several years unaware that it's basically useless. So is there some other tape that's up to this task or should I be packing some scraps of silnylon and a tube of silicone sealer? I'll still be packing duct tape for it's other 999 uses of course.
Thanks!
