We covered the inside of the cut from the inside with gorilla tape- it did not stick all that well so we spread some hot glue onto the edges and then covered the outside of the bag over the tape/gule with another matching piece of tape. He then put a couple of stitches into each corner on the tape "just in case". It held well.

    I hope this helps,

    I've never had a tear in my plastic DC bag but every so often there will be a small puncture that shows up. Have had very good results with minimal work with 'liquid electrical tape', usually in a small container much like the common 'contact cement' that has a brush attached to the lid. Just wipe the dust off the outside and dab on a coat or two and you're good to go.

    Would work well if used like we used to patch bike inner tubes.
