I read somewhere about using India ink and Elmer's glue to fix pinholes in shutter curtains. I just tried repairing another Praktina shutter using black 3D fabric paint from Sprawl-Mart. It went on easily, the brush cleaned up with water, dried in 24 hours (I let it sit for 72 to be safe...) and it is flexible. I've used the camera for two weekends now with no problems.
