Simply cut it to size, round the edges and stick on. Warming it afterwards and running a roller over will help slightly too. Do both sides. Occasionally I will then sew over the tape and silnylon but only if it is a high tension area. Most sailmakers in Hobart will sell you a suitable piece of sail cloth at a reasonable price.
