Thin Rubber or Nylon Strips for Taping Drysuit Seam.

[oldpeanut]

Lately I just replaced my neoprene drysuit's neck and wrist seals with new latex seals. In order to reinforce the seam between latex seal and neoprene material, I would like to use thin rubber strip or stretchy nylon strip to tape on the seam.

Unfortunately I could not find any thin rubber strip or stretchy nylon strip in Vancouver. Could anyone help me to get the source of the materials I need? Thank you in advance for any of your help.

Try some Renfrew hockey tape. I use the clear stuff. Others use the more flexible cloth type hockey tape.
