Wader repairs?

[TubeDude]

[cool][#0000ff]Glad you found some fishies that wanted to play. Also glad you converted a new tubing buddy. Always a good idea to go with somebody else...just in case. I suggest you get a set of walkie talkies so you can exchange info (and ragging) while on the water and too far apart for normal communication.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]To repair your waders first get a tube of Aquaseal. Then turn your waders inside out and fill the leaky leg with water...either in your tub or outside on the lawn. Have a red marker handy to mark wherever water appears. Look for more than one spot. Once leaks start to develop in "breathables" you can get multiple pinholes in a wear area.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Dry the waders on both sides. You can put the Aquaseal patch on either side but it is less visible if you patch the inside.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]If it is just a pinhole or small leak, either lay the waders so the area is flat...or stretch it over a small box or container and bungee it tight and flat. Squeeze a small amount of the Aquaseal on it and spread it around so it covers for about a half inch on all sides of the hole. Allow to cure for several hours. The patch will be flexible and waterproof.[/#0000ff]
