I've been waiting for a reason to change out my original neck seal for some time now. I lost some neck weight over the last year and the neck seal was leaking a little during certain contortions. Anyway, I ripped the seal pulling it over my head after the dive today and figured now is the time.
However; I ordered Aquaseal and contact cement. The Aquaseal came in, but the cement did not. The Aquaseal says it is a cement, so I figured it will work for everything. I scuffed the two surfaces lightly and began smearing the Aquaseal on the suit and pressed the seal to it. Right. The seal kept popping up at various spots since the Aquaseal doesn't seat right away. What a PITA. I knew I should have contact the two together first and then sealed with the Aquaseal.
Now, i'm letting the thing set up with some spots bowed. I'll have to reglue them down tomorrow.
Did I muck this up and should I start over? Or will it all turn out fine?
Thanks.
