I have an SFS unit that is perfectly fine (it has seen 8 weeks of use), except that it has some major fraying going on in an area the size of a quarter on the right side and another one on the left side. Is there anything I can do to halt the fraying so that I can get more life out of it?

there is a product called no-fray and another called fray check that can be purchase at walmart. My knot sealer also stops fraying.

Excellent! Thanks. I have your knot sealer and BA recently sent me a bottle of Fray Check.
