Hi, what sort of glue is required for replacing the seals on these suits. Being a PVC suit I've read that a polyurethane or nitrile glue is needed rather than what is normally used on drysuits. However, I'm not sure exactly which glue is suitable. Can anyone help?
 
I just bought a Mares TechFit myself. I'll be headed back to the LDS today to pick up some tanks, I'll ask while I'm there. They are a Mares dealer/servicer.
 
Sorry, I completely forgot to get back to this thread. Depending on what you want to do there could be different glues involved, but for the most part he uses a two-part compound. Should be pretty pretty standard. I can't tell you the brand or name though, my German was not strong enough, and it's been a few weeks. Probably not that much help, but that's all I've got.
 
Thanks for the reply, I have since found bostik 2402 is a common two part glue for drysuits so I may give that a go.
