Members BDAZ Posted March 19, 2014 Members Report Posted March 19, 2014 I offered to repair a friends belt which he has word for years and doesn't want to throw it away. It appears to be a well made casual men's belt 1" with a very heavy machine stitch, probably 277 or heavier. The thread has rotted at the end and the top and bottom foot or so has become delaminated. There is some black gunk in the middle which looks like it may have been some type of double sided adhesive, which does not cover the stitching. Any ideas what this is and what would be a suitable replacement. Thanks! Bob Quote

Members BDAZ Posted March 25, 2014 Author Members Report Posted March 25, 2014 It was used to bulk up the belt and also to stick the two sides together, but what is it and is it available? It's not leather, but seems more like adhesive residue. Maybe double sided foam adhesive? Cya! Bob Quote
