Any of you found a product that works well for repairing the knee pad area? Wore through the first layer and would sure like to save an otherwise perfectly good wetsuit.

A ton of products out there..Aquaseal, SD40, Rubatex Neoprene cement, 3M 8008. Any of them work well?

Guess an alternative would be to find a shop that can sew on additional neoprene.

Experiences appreciated.

Sail fast, Tom G
