Checking over the Nallo 3 GT I discovered a nick in the sewn in groundsheet of the inner. Must be about 2cms long.
I've never had such a problem before. Anybody got any suggestions of a cheap but effective repair please? I was almost tempted to use a Park Tyre Boot

I use waterproof sail repair tape, from yonder chandlers.

I'd use a
goretex repair patch
a) I've got one
b) the patch that's been on the elbow of my Gore jacket since just after the second time I wore it, about 5 years ago, is still in place with no sign of leakage or lifting round the edges.

McNett Tenacious clear waterproof sealing and repair tape
. Looks the business
