is there a good site that goes into detail on the subject of repairing tears in the fabric of my ultralight?

for polyfiber:

1. Trim out any ragged parts from the hole.

2. Cut out a patch of fabric from a smooth piece of unshrunken fabric.

3. Mask off the area.

4. Clean off all coatings inside the masked area using MEK. Go down to bare fabric.

5. Cement the patch to the old fabric using a 1 inch or 2 inch overlap and Poly-Tak cement.

6. Heat shrink the area with an iron calibrated to 350 degrees F.

7. Brush on a coat of Poly-Brush over the new fabric.

8. If finishing tapes are needed (over 8 inch tear), apply these using Poly-Brush.

9. Spray on 2-3 coats of Poly-Spray.

10. Spray on the Poly-Tone color.

FAA Advisory Circular 43-13 is the basic repair manual for all aircraft related repairs. Unless the manufacturer provides specific information and repair instructions, you should always refer to AC 43-13 when planning to make repairs or modifications to any aircraft (Including ultra-lights).
