Fray Check Liquid Seam Sealant 2-Pack – Permanent Clear Fabric Edge Protector to Prevent Fraying and Secure Thread Ends – 0.75 oz Bottles

The classic Dritz Fray Check is the best fray check out there and I’ve tried several others when this got too hard to find. It’s a very thin liquid so a little drop goes a long way. It won’t dry hard and feel like super glue. You can wash and dry as usual once the Fray Check is thoroughly dry. I keep a bottle in my laundry room and kitchen for anytime I see a small hole starting, or loose thread pulling. One drop of Fray Check will keep it from unraveling or growing. On *most* fabrics it’ll disappear after it’s dried. It does stay wet looking on the rare blend, I think mine was a merino nylon blend. Please don’t stop making this formula, Dritz!

UPDATE: I just bought 2 more skirts & 2 more Fray Checks. I wrote my original review several years ago. I have not had a single issue with the seams & hems I originally treated w/ Fray Check. I wear the skirts several times each summer. I place them in a laundry bag before machine washing & hang drying them. They’ve held up to years of wear & laundering. I recently purchased a blouse w/ decorative strings at the neck. There’s a decorative oval detail at the end of each string. They are wrapped w/ a thread that started fraying after 1 wash. I treaded the ovals w/ Fray Check & they’ve stopped fraying. I was even able to repair the damage. I swear by this product. It has so many uses. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I love wearing maxi skirts & recently purchased 2 from Amazon.Afibi Women Full/Ankle Length Blending Maxi Chiffon Long Skirt Beach Skirt Design J(1)) and N(7). The top layer of the skirts is made from a vibrant, sheer, chiffon material. Each skirt has a knee length liner which is made from a more substantial material. The hems & seams on the chiffon layers are not folded & sewn. They're sewn with a simply machine stitch which leaves a finished edge. But, I think there's a good chance that the material will fray. Maxi skirts tend to sweep the ground or floor & a simple finishing stitch may not be enough to protect the hem of my skirt. Then there's the wear from washing the skirts. I remembered using a similar product many years ago. It could have been the same product. But, I'm not sure. Anyway, I purchased this & treated the seams & hems on both skirts. I was afraid that it would make the material stiffer where applied. I noticed a very slight difference. It was certainly not enough to affect the way the skirts fall or how the seams feel against my legs. I now feel confident that I can wear my skirts w/o worrying about the material fraying. I will update this review with info on how the Fray Checked worked once I've worn & cleaned the skirts a few times.

This stuff really works well. Withstands washing. I do not put my jeans in the dryer, so I can’t attest to that.

Great product. Effective at preventing fraying

I am reviewing voluntarily. I got it elsewhere and can say that this product works very well. It definitely gets the job done

I've been using fray check for years. it helps keep fabric from fraying in places where there is a raw edge of fabric, which can be if there is a small cut in fabric, or at a hem. I also use it on serged hems to hold the thread in place to prevent unravelling.

Worked great for project!

Great stuff. Holds for a long time while being flexible.

Are use this to seal the wefts on my bundles so my wig wouldn’t shed. It works fantastically would recommend.

Worked perfectly on hand ties on a quilt

Perfecto para arreglar deshilachados, el two-pack puede ser demasiado porque sólo necesitas unas gotas.

this is great, as it stops things from fraying. I wouldn't recommend for simply putting on something like a moth hole tho, as it dries slightly dark and hard - same as if you applied super glue to fabric. I use it where seams are tight, but remain hidden to stop stitches pulling out, or where twist locks are inserted and the fabric has to be cut to accommodate.

Brilliant product. Does exactly what it says and a little goes a long way.
