Long shot; just tec-washed my filthy but not worn out 90s goretex bivibag to instructions and all the seam-taping has come off. I know one needs a big machine to tape seams. Anyone know where/if I can get this done? Am sure its uneconomic but I love this bag and otherwise it's got plenty of life. Cheers Richard

I would recommend you use a wallpapering seam roller to get good pressure on the hot tepe either side of the seam for a good seal.
This is what I used when making all my DIY waterproof kit from coats to drybags.
