Hi, thanks for the video, it’s really helpful. One question though, could you also use double sided tape between the seal and the half forms to help align the seal as you’re approaching the glue? Not sure how easily it releases from the latex though.
Hi Ioannis, Great question. It is possible to replace your neoprene seals with latex, however, we have found that sometimes the circumference of the seal can differ. You will want to be exact in your measurements to make sure your new seal fits. You will find that our seals have the needed measurements: www.apsltd.com/sailing-clothing-apparel/dry-suits-wet-suits-wet-wear/dry-suit-seals-maintenance.html Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!

Thank you for putting this together. It is very helpful.
Great video, thank you. But where is the link or post that you are discussing at 4:12 ?
The ring is that custom made or is that a part of the repair set?
Where can I find the product you were using as the accelerant and cleaner?
Gear AID Aquaseal FD Flexible Durable Repair Adhesive and Cure Accelerator a.co/d/88oDB4I

Hello, what if we have a suit that has neoprene seals and want to upgrade with silicone (using one of the available kits)..

Some videos show the latex cuff seal being glued onto the INSIDE (others Outside) of the suit. What's the difference and does it matter?
Excellent video tells you what he used glue etc
Good job! Very nice!
