Hello I did a small hole in my trilam drysuit leg.
1. I would like to know how to fix it. Is there special care, or is it better left to professionals?
2. Is there kit save a day kit (glue and patches..) that you recommand or do you know how to constitute one?

Thank you very much

Bernard
 
Aquaseal. Repair from the inside of the suit for esthetic reasons.

In a pinch, duct tape works wonders and lasts almost forever!

i know its a dead thread...but i have a drysuit that leaks also...only its a rental suit. will duck tape work on the drysuit sock?
 
That depends on what the sock is made of. If it is the base material of the suit, then it should. If it is latex, I think you will find that the stretch of the rubber will make the tape pull loose pretty fast.
 
its whatever the dui models are made from. im just going to put duct tape on it. its going to be repaired soon anyway.
 
The DUI socks are made of compressed neoprene.
Look for Aquaseal at your local dive store, it is inexpensive and easy to apply.
