Attaching Pockets to the Drysuit

[@nonfaker]

Even though this channel sadly seems to be inactive, I want to really thank you for putting up all of your great videos. You helped me so much to understand drysuit repair, your explanations and elaborations are the best I have ever come across. So much knowledge, great presentation. Thank you so much.

[@DrySuitProjects]

Will add some more fresh staff, promise

@@DrySuitProjects great to hear! I installed Tecline Pockets to my Ursuit Trilaminate with SC4000 with approx. 1:20 hardener and the edges are peeling off slowly. Should I redo it? If yes, how do go about removing the glue?

[@DrySuitProjects]

If the pocket is not holding (easily removed from the suit) then yes, redo it. Otherwise only the corners. The sharp angles always holding the worst

[@nonfaker]

How much hardener do you add to rema tiptop?

[@DrySuitProjects]

@@nonfaker its 4% of the glue weight. Always read the manual :)

[@SuperScubaTim]

Thanks for the videos. Would you have any tips for removing drysuit pockets that are glued on? Hairdryer??

[@DrySuitProjects]

Yes, actually it depends on the conditions. The trick is to not overheat the Drysuit fabric while trying to melt the glue. So be careful there

hi! in my country.i can find tip top sc 2000 .how about this glue?or we must be choose sc 4000.how about the different point?and can we use toluene to clean ?

[@DrySuitProjects]

SC2000 is essentially the same. Although it considered more hazardous for the environment due to some components in it. Toluene is ok to clean with.

[@curtisjohnson6735]

What kind of glue? What liquid were you using to clean up the edges? Does the same type work for neoprene drysuits as well?

[@DrySuitProjects]

Its Rema Tip Top SC 4000 glue. Cleaning with an acetone. And definitely, this will work for neoprene

@@DrySuitProjects do u know a cheaper option for the glue? ty

[@DrySuitProjects]

The price of the glue is negligible compared to other parts used in the repairs. However the quality deterioration of the work, while using a wrong or unsuitable glue, can be devastating. As a result one ends up having to redo everything, loosing the parts previously installed, due to leaky or weak bond. Been there, done that. I’m not telling that the glue I’m using is the only viable option, but I’m trusting it and can guarantee a quality and sleep well at nights
