I have a Bare 7mm SGS wetsuit (the one with the smooth silver surface inside). I'm using it now for about 3 years and I'm very pleased with it.


However, a few seams start to come loose, especially near the taped-areas (under the back zipper and near the shoulders).

Has anyone experience with this problem with this suit?
Is it enough to just put neoprene-glue in the seams and hold them together for a while?
Should I put some extra 'tape' on it (like the one already on a few seams)?

Or should I better send it back for repair?
 
Neoprene cement and aquaseal is what holds together most of my old wetsiuts. I use the cement for seams that came unglued and aquaseal for filling voids.
Good luck.
