I have a dive club patch that I'd like to attach to wetsuits. I've read several threads here, and the most popular option seems to be drysuit glue (specifically PB-300). Because I want to mail some adhesive to each club member with their patch, however, the bulky size of drysuit glue (which comes in cans like rubber cement) is problematic.

Several people advise against using Aquaseal because it dries hard, whereas drysuit glue (or most any contact cement) will still flex when it dries.

There are, however, a bunch of different variations of Aquaseal. Aquaseal+FD is specifically a "Flexible Durable Adhesive" to "Fix rips and tears permanently on waders, wetsuits, PVC inflatables, muck boots, and more with this waterproof and flexible adhesive." Is there any reason this would NOT be a good option?

Maybe use drysuit tape? I'm not sure if DRiS could get it in different sizes, I'm sure they could.
