scolopax Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 Does anyone know who can repair waders, I have an almost new pair of chest waders and the seam has parted over about 30 cm. Cost a fair bit of money so I am loathe to bin them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panoma1 Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 Tack the seam together with a blob of superglue every 1/2" or so......then cover the whole area generously around and on the split with a thick splurge of Stormsure (or Aquasure) the intended repair site must be laid flat as the stormsure will run and find its own level if you don't!..........when stormsure is nearly dry (tacky) sprinkle with sand.....leave overnight to set! unsightly........but has worked for me!

Penelope Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 As above, but do both sides, one at a time, minus the sand on the inside. Tack the seam together with a blob of superglue every 1/2" or so......then cover the whole area generously around and on the split with a thick splurge of Stormsure (or Aquasure) the intended repair site must be laid flat as the stormsure will run and find its own level if you don't!..........when stormsure is nearly dry (tacky) sprinkle with sand.....leave overnight to set! unsightly........but has worked for me!

misser Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 dont know if its any help but you could try www.fishingwaders.co.uk in Liverpool...they seem good, a friend of mine had to a thick bandage type thing on one foot, he couldnt get a pair of wader to fit both feet...put him touch with the aforementioned and they made a cuystom pair with different sized boots...at a good price an all, he was well chuffed...maybe worth a try...atb...misser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walshie Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 If they are almost new, aren't they under some sort of warranty still? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
