hole in neopream waders.

[walleyewess]

I just put a small hole in my waders while getting out of the boat at the access. Does anyone know of what to use to patch them. The hole is not all the way through but I dont want it getting any worse.

Aquaseal!

I have used aqauseal and it does work well where is the hole? I came up with a faster , more durable method .. and bigger holes are easy as well , for both boot holes and on the neoprene.

get a small tire patch and vulcanzing cement like the ones for patching bike tubes, I use tire patches. because I work in a auto shop

1). make sure neoprene is dry.

2).lay patch over the area and trace around it with a sharpie or pen. 3).apply cement to comfines of the area, peel plastic backer front tire patch and apply cemet to back of patch also.

and allow time to tack up. (I use a heat gun to speed the process).

4). apply patch to the area.

firmly roll the edge of a spray can across the area. of the patch if you don't have a tire patch roller but they come with most kits .

permanent strong repair in as little as 15 minute . with no waiting before you can use it..or maybe just ask the tire shop to do it

Both good suggestions. I found a cheaper version of aquaseal SAP clear RTV silicon. Flexible tough and fast drying. You can get a big tube for about $5

SHOE GOO in my opinion nothing else compares to it.

actually just picked some of this up for my neoprene gloves

[walleyewess]

I used aquaseal with a patch it came with and it does not leak so far and I hope it doesn't any time soon

the shoe goo seems to be working but holy dump are there a lot holes in my gloves. I've heard people advise against neoprene gloves and now I'm realizing why...yikes.
