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

I'm terrible at remembering names, so for me divers with name tags would be very useful :D

Oh god me too! It should be compulsory. lol.
I was introduced as Priscilla by someone i'd been on a weekend away with the week before.
I told her I prefered it! :giggle:

Pracilla has a nice ring to it (not that Paula doesn't).

My (used) drysuit came with the name "Dale" written in magic marker on the leg....so sometimes I get Dale...I just go with it:confused::D

My NEW made-to-measure drysuit came with the wrong name on the inside... The manufacturer mixed up mine and someone elses, so size/options are all mine, but came with name THOMAS. Somewhere out there someone has one that won't fit me but has my name inside...
 
Here's the stuff we use. It's marketed by a few different places so the label changes, but it's all the same...

PB-300 Drysuit Glue Dry Suit Adhesive | #333918389

The might have different stuff in London though. Full disclosure...I've haven't tried any drysuit changes in London:)
This is just contact cement correct? I used Weldwood from Home Depot. Worked great...pretty sure it's all the same stuff chemically speaking.

Oh dear!
 
I went to my dive shop and he told me the Aquasure I had was a contact adhesive and would do the job. I've tried a bit and it's definitely not. It seems to be more of a sealant.
I've done a test patch and i'll see how it goes overnight. It's a bit messier.

I'll order the stuff mentioned above or similar.

As far as I know contact cement by any other name is still contact cement...you can probably find it cheaper at the local hardware store...I used DAP Weldwood and it worked perfectly.
