I tried the Tear Aids after huge recommendations from folks on a couple of tubes. I've had mixed results. If the tear is on the top of the bag I'd say you'd be fine. But if it was anywhere that gets put under pressure I'd look for something that bonds the patch to the surface and not just depend on adhesive. Just my experience. Those Tear Aid's had excellent reviews but I just cant seem to get them to last for me.

Find some like vinyl material (i.e. old air mattress) and cut a patch to cover the area with 1"+ overlap. Round patch edges. Clean and roughen up the sac and patch where they'll contact, then use PVC glue to bond. Some weight helps things out too. I've had good luck patching air mattresses and inflatables this way - much better than the patches that come with them. I like Tear-Aid more for non-pressure fixed. I have a few vinyl seat tears that I use Tear-Aid on, which works well until I pull the trigger on a new interior, but wouldn't trust it for a sac.

I've patched so many fatsacs through the years. The old ones would split the seams. The thing I found that worked the best was shoe goo. I used to take a patch and shop goo it on but then realized I could just slightly overlap the tear and shoe goo it. Always worked great and never has a leak in the same area. Very easy and Cheap.

I have to agree Shoe Goo will do it. Comes in several colors as well.
