strap to grommet interface repair

Generous amounts of seamgrip with some addional fabric/tape around it

basically seam grip it, duct tape around it, and the punch/cut a hole through the tape

thats what i do on cheap gromet  tarps anyways

;)

Sounds good Eric, thanks for the tip!

one more thing …

if it does go … dont throw the tent away … pop the grommet out (save em dont throw em away)

and then sew (or get someone to sew) a grommet strap that you can buy or salvage to the strap end

its also possible to jimmy a workable solution with some cord and a ring sometimes as well

;)

I will keep that in mind.  These grommets are very far from failing completely, just beginning to show signs of wear.  I hope to keep it that way, but if they do fail then I will keep your suggestion in mind.   Thanks for taking the time to respond Eric.
