I would use those patches that are made for clothes. You iron them on. Put it on the outside (where it shows when you put it n the bed) and be vary careful!!! Don't iron too much to where you burn the material of the bed cover. It worked for me. To be extra safe I then hand sowed around the patch to make sure it stayed in place. The patch is good for keeping the cover waterproof. If you tore the bottom (the part that you can't touch to heat) then I don't know. Let me know how it goes.

Check the rubber gasket. If it is getting brittle, it will not seal. A cheap, easy fix.

There is no such thing, they sent me an email after reading my review of my damage shield protector and said that there is a replacement on the way but, I'm still waiting, if you got a damage product they won't replace it.

If you still have the solution you can try. Mine is starting to peel up from the corner now so I may be trying to re-apply mine as well.

Also, get the shelf liner from you local box store or supermarket. The kind that is made of mine waffle like perforated rubber. I put mine on it while it healed. Worked perfect.

It's actually very easy and takes about 3 minutes to replace. No ripping needed. Here the video I used. :) http://youtu.be/b2F4XUx36bQ

Dude just use crazy glue, but 1st make sure you scrape of all the existing glue from where the old screen was if not it won't fit. Also its a tight fit so if you bent your housing just a little bit then it won't fit. Good luck

Meh, you can't really. I tried pulling it up and it "bent" the protector. That corner looks a little wonky now. If you really need to remove it though, try using goo-gone and a fine knife.

I had a small hole in my Patagonia down jacket and I did not want to send it out for repair through them (it can take up to 30 days to get products back from them when sent out for repair). Patagonia suggested that I patch the hole with Tenacious Tape. I took their advice and the patch has worked perfectly. I would recommend for smaller holes/tears. Hope this helps!

Take a piece of lightweight cardboard and gently run it down the screen over the plastic. This should take care of it. Also make sure your screen is clean.

Maybe by having it re-sewn on, but probably not. Things should not break that easily, so I would attempt to contact Otter Box directly and see if they will replace the item, being it was probably a manufacturer defect. They definitely stand by their products and have worked with replacing an item they make even though I did not purchase directly from them. They may ask you to take a few cell phone pictures to send to them for examination. Good luck.

I would try that. Just go easy, the glues used by Chinese when opening a seam can cause cracking of the clear cover. Worth a try just be careful.

I think you can just purchase the cover however I would call the manufacturer to be sure. If the damage is not too severe you may be able to patch the cover with clear postal tape. I repaired mine this way as the sun does dry out the plastic. Good Luck!

Duct tape? Obviously that would not be the most attractive option but I don't think you will find a replacement for something like that except possibly through the manufacturer. Have you tried contacting them?

Hello Christine,It sounds like you have something that is cracked or damaged. I would call Amazon and request a replacement. I hope this helps.Dwight

1. Watch the instruction video. 2 pull the tear as tight together as possible. Put some kind of temporary backing on the outside of the repair point. Push repair material out of the tube on the tear and about 1/2" either side of it. Let it dry over night. Remove backing. Close tube tightly and store in freezer.

Duct tape..if its real damaged, cut it in 2 with clean cuts then duct tape it. It worked for me
