Omer Wetsuit rips
Hi guys,
Just recently I got a omer wetsuit and saw there were little tears on the inside of the open cell lining. I was wondering if I should patch it with a glue or just leave it? I was thinking that if I patch/glue with something that will harden the inside of the suit might irritate my skin some how? If not what glue should I use? These tears do not go through the whole suit, just that open cell lining. Any advice? |

Re: Omer Wetsuit rips
glue them up with wetsuit glue of your choice, i get the stuff in a tin can with a brush in the cap, but spetton/yazbeck sell it in a little tube. and make sure to cut your fingernails often, long nails can rip a suit up quick.
i never notice irritation around glue patches, i wouldnt worry too much about it. |

My suit has lots of patches where I had to put neoprene glue. I have not noticed any irritation from the patches either. I use Picasso neoprene glue.
