    Default Attaching Tyvek

    Double-sided, indoor/outdoor carpet tape.

    Looking for a permanent attachment or temporary? For permanent attachment, I would think sewing a good rollovewr seam would be the way to go. If you are looking to attach and reattach, then sew and carpet tape a piece of velcro on there with the mating side attached to the area you want to attach to.

    I don't know if VHB tape like I use on Cuben would work on Tyvek, but besides cost it is superior to sewing and no seam seal required. It works great on some stuff and not at all on others. I suspect it would work great on tyvek but I haven't tried it.
