Repairing Waders

Whilst mullet hunting the last few days I noticed I have the smallest leak in one side of my waders, it is actually where the boot meets the leg, it's not major but a bit annoying with a damp sock can anyone suggest an adhesive and method to repair these. Can an adhesive be purchased from a DIY store or is specialist stuff required?

Cheers

"Aquasure" can be bought from most tackle shops

turn them inside out fill them with water and see were the leak is and then use aquasure and i use a bike wheel patch to repair the hole

To check for leaks in chest waders.

Items required: a dish, water, washing-up liquid, a paint brush, a football, a felt pen and some where to hang the waders from

1. Hang up the waders.
2. Make up a solution of washing up liquid and water.
3. Push the football down the suspect leg this will compress the air in the leg.
4. Paint on the washing up liquid on the suspect area and wait for the bubbles to show.
You may have to repeat No. 3 a few times.
5. Once the leak is found mark it with the pen.
6. Let the surface dry and then apply the “aquasure”


It might sound a lot but it never fails even for the smallest leaks.

Anyone who knows Dommo and has witnessed the state of some of the waders he has with patches on top of patches will testify, there goes a man who sure knows what hes talking about....

Thanks for the detailed advice guys, went and bought myself a tube and the process is now well underway
