GEAR AID Aquaseal FD Wader & Boot Repair Kit – Waterproof 0.25oz Adhesive with 2 Tenacious Tape Hex Patches (2.5" x 2.8", Black and Clear) for Fixing Holes, Breathable Waders, Boots, and Outdoor Gear

I got a rock inside my wading boot and wore a small hole into the neoprene stocking foot of the waders. This patch kit was perfect to repair the neoprene. This is simple to apply, is self curing (doesn't require UV), and remains flexible which is critical for durability of the repair on neoprene.

Can't sing praises higher. It works, is easy to use, and has kept my waders going two years since using it. I keep one in my gear bag now incase I need it. Cannot recommend more. Its great.

I just applied to my Hunter vulcanized rubber boots; they had a seam crack. The glue seemed to repair the crack (time will tell) but I could not help getting the glue on the outside of the boots leaving a small glopy shiny mess. I tried to be extremely careful but the glue is very thick (which is good, I understand) but difficult to work with. The glue dries clear so it's not as bad as it could have been. Overall it seems to be a great product. Maybe I can sand the excess in a day? I believe the seal will work and I am recommending this product.

Great product! Fixed my chest waders, they had a small tear on the side of my waist. It’s been a year since I patched them and no leaks

Repaired a cut in my Muck boots, and holes in neoprene waders. Repairs have been permanent …lasted for years

The trick to a clean result is prep. I cleaned the spots and leak-tested first with isopropyl alcohol to find exactly where it was going, then applied a thin layer and let it cure flat and horizontal. Do that and the repair basically disappears. You cannot even feel it inside the wader against your foot, which is what you want when you are standing in water all day. The one thing to plan for is the cure time, a solid 8 to 12 hours before you use them. I let mine sit overnight. There is a separate Cure Accelerator that gets you to about 2 hours if you are in a hurry, but I was not. So far so good, and it is holding. It is a staple in my kit now. If your waders start leaking at a seam, this beats replacing them, and you may not even need the patches. Prep the surface, cure it flat, and give it the time.

The GEAR AID Wader and Boot Repair Kit for Neoprene and Breathable Waders is designed to offer a quick fix for damaged waders, but it falls short of providing long-lasting solutions. Here’s a brief review based on its performance: ### Kit Components The kit includes Aquaseal FD Adhesive and patches, which are intended to repair tears and punctures in neoprene and breathable waders. The adhesive is easy to apply and the patches are durable enough for immediate repairs. ### Effectiveness and Durability While the initial repair works well and seems to seal effectively, the fix only lasts for a few uses before needing another repair. This indicates that the adhesive and patches may not provide a permanent solution for frequent anglers or those who subject their waders to rigorous use. ### Ease of Use The kit is user-friendly, with straightforward instructions that make the repair process simple even for beginners. The Aquaseal FD Adhesive dries relatively quickly, allowing for minimal downtime. ### Value for Money Considering the limited durability of the repairs, the value of the kit is questionable. It’s suitable for temporary fixes but may not be cost-effective for those needing more robust, long-term solutions. ### Pros and Cons **Pros:** - Easy to use with clear instructions - Quick-drying adhesive - Effective for immediate, temporary repairs **Cons:** - Repairs only last for a few uses - Not a permanent solution for heavily used waders - May not be cost-effective for frequent anglers ### Conclusion The GEAR AID Wader and Boot Repair Kit is handy for quick, short-term repairs, but its effectiveness diminishes with frequent use. If you need a temporary fix for your waders, this kit will do the job, but for long-lasting durability, consider seeking more robust repair options or professional repairs.

This product worked great

dovrebbero bastare le stellina non sono daccorde che io debba per forza schrivere qualcosa questo e un testo di protesta

Go bag, pack, car or boat, this little kit is worth having on you. Repair & /or seal shoes, wetsuits, Gortex, tarps, tents or your favourite waterproof bag. Also a great gift for an outdoorsy friend who has everything.

It was dry and hard to get out of the tube was unable to use

Unbelievably overpriced.
