I have a couple of name patches I want to stick to my Neoprene Drysuit.
I've already stuck one on my wetsuit with great results. I used the glue that came with my drysuit (pictured).
I masked off an area and applied a couple of coats to the suit and one to the patch, I left overnight then applied another coat to both left for 15 mins and put them together. It gripped instantly and is stuck fast.
So now I want to do the same to my drysuit (also Neoprene)
I've brought some AQUASURE but i'm not convinced it's the right thing for the job.
Obviously i don't want to screw it up!
What glue do you guys recommend?
Black Witch?
Aquasure?
Aquaseal?
Pritt Stick?
Cheers!
Paula.

Hello. I try to keep my ego at a very medium level. I don't have to broadcast my name, or toss my certification levels.
If, the name is for Identification/Theft
purposes? I would merely write it on the inside. I'm just another backmount on the boat. (No offense.)
Of, course....If it's a safety issue, or first responder, military scenario.
I would opt to sew it on.
Just a humble thought.
Cheers.

I'm not sure how a name badge is being egotistical to be honest.

It's not....lots of people do it. I just think it was a different perspective is all.

I know Seaskin has the option to have name and country flag put on the suit that you order....I always thought it was pretty cool.

I saw it on Seaskins website and thought it was a good idea. I have a very generic 'off the peg' suit and it's very obvious what sort of person i am because i have a mouth and actions.
I tend to judge on them.

I don't think any offense was meant by the above post...or at least even if it was you shouldn't take it that way. I at least try to take a look at what other people say based on their perspective....doesn't mean I have to agree with it, but I don't let it offend me, lol....

I have a pretty generic drysuit....I think I might add a name tag to it!!!

To be honest is I see the point.
Fair enough. No offence taken.
Cheers.

I'll try and be less sensitive.
