Ok that’s good info but I’m not there yet..... still working on destroying my zipperalso make sure your seat belt isn't riding up under your patch pocket flap... ask me how I know!
the seat belt will act like a little saw and slowly cut at the threads holding the pocket flap. I used some leather repair glue to hold it down as only 2 thread stitches broke loose. so far so good.
Very good...Great!could always use a lighter and singe the thread ends. If any nylon in it at all it will melt enough to cauterize the ends. just do it a little then quickly pinch it.
uhhh...so the glueing option might after all be sustainable..I've tried that and if it goes all the way across it will stop the male part going into the zip box. The weakness is where the tape is crimped to the male end and it will just come apart eventually. Modern zips are reinforced with plastic there.
