Quick question....

I've read a lot of different opinions online, so I figured you guys could give me the straight story. I need to repair a rubber ankle seal on a 5mm wetsuit. It's a clean rip in the shape of a "U"..just wondering if Aquaseal would work or if some type of rubber cement would be better. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

DO NOT use Aquaseal! It will definitely cause problems in a high stretch zone of a suit. buy some standard neoprene wetsuit glue and it should be fine.
 
I had read that about aquaseal...thank you two for the suggestions.
