can anyone help me to find out how i would go about repairing my neoprene stocking foot on my wader as their is a small tear on one of them and I'm not sure what to do ,,,,is it different from the leg repair and if so why and what do i do ,or should i get it repaired in a shop.

where abouts is the tear ,if its in a high stress/pressure area like the heel ,i personally would have it done properly,to be honest i think i would have it done professionally anyway as there is a lot of movement within the foot area and self repair may not be strong enough and may require stitching ??

I repaired several punctures through the sole of mine just by cleaning with alcohol and smearing aquasure over the area. That was months ago and no problems since.

ditto .. for just a leak or this

great mate that sound just the ticket and will allow me to keep on using them for the time being until i need to replace the stocking ,which I'm sure you can do. (am i right????)

TBH I have never heard of anyone replacing a stocking. I imagine it would be problematic as stitching would be involved. If you are wearing out or damaging the stocking foot regularly something ain't right. I have always found the seams at the crotch and knees are where most leaks occur.

All you need is a tube of "BLACK WITCH" it's for the repair of Neoprene! It seals anything water tight !! I used it on an old pair of breathables and they no longer leak!! For best results ; leave for two days after applying!

It's ten times better than Aquasure!!!!!!!! But it's black (as the name suggests) and a bit messy!

mostyn , black witch is an adhesive , whereas aquasure is a sealant , the black witch is good if you have say a small tear where you can apply it to both sides of the tear and press together ,is it not for gluing together rather than sealing ???

A small piece of material tape or neoprene tape then Black Witch - job done! It will never leak again! All the deep sea divers use it!
