I came to your shop in Glasgow a couple of years ago to get some wetsuits and ba,s and you gave me a meter if your tape for a repair to my wetsuit which consisted if quite a big hole in the arse. Its been two years and the repair is still as good as new. I used it with the Stormsure glue purchased from yourselves some time previously. which we have been using to fix our kayaks and wetsuits with great success

Fantastic video and instructions! Thank you! Just finished repairing my wetsuit and it looks solid. Can't wait to bring it in the water.

Aqua tape is rubber tape that you need liquid adhesive to apply. Neotape is the product seen in the video that is applied with an iron. Neotape is commonly seen on the inside of wetsuits to reinforce certain areas.

Great video, good tips on the rounded corners and clips! - I followed the instructions almost exactly, used a toothpick instead of brush. In the USA, was able to find the Black Witch goo on Amazon under 'black witch adhesive' but not if you search the McNett products alone. Could not find Neotape, went with Iron Mend, which seems to be very similar. Only difference is that the IM instructions beg and plead for the user to place heat shield paper between the iron and the patch/neoprene.

Is it possible to use tape to make flatlock stitched seams into glued/taped ones. My suit is a cheapy but fits well so wondering if I can upgrade it?

[@LomoWatersport]

In theory that might work but in practice you'll find it difficult to uniformly apply the tape with a home iron over the whole suit and differences in the amount of stretch between the tape and the suit would likely mean some of the tape would come off after a period of time. I wouldnt recommend it to be honest.

I have done this type of repair on neoprene with a great adhesive called Neoprene Queen. It comes in a bright orange tube.

Thanks mate. This is very useful. What is name and brand of the tape and where can we buy it. Cheers.

[@chrismck27]

i just checked your site to buy some of that tape, but seen there is 2 sorts, whats the difference between aquatape and neotape, and whats the tape all them new wetsuits have on the inside to seal them up nowadays

Hi, have managed to make a hole in the chest section of my tri wetsuit. It hasn't gone all the way through but I can't stick it back there's no flappy. Any ideas ? Hope it makes sense
