Before fixing the suit, as we need to determine if it is repairable.

If your changes become stiff and pale and starts to break, I fear no news is bad, is ready for the trash! However, you have ripped the seams of the suit or, if commenced, Split, then here's what you need to know changes for repair.

Before you begin, make sure your suit is clean and free of salt. Once youclean wet clothes, rub the area you are going to fix them with alcohol, so you do not have any fat. This helps keep the neoprene cement.

Divide the tears in the seams and large

If it breaks in your dress is a great, or one of your has split seams, you have to sew the concrete, neoprene before trying to apply. If you do not, the service will be at hand.

A nylon thread is the best choice if you use a strong wire teeth. You do not haveany kind of specific folders, just hold the two edges and sew as best you can (try to keep your points close to each other for strength).

When your stitching is ordered, you must use the cement to make it waterproof neoprene. Do one side and let it dry before others. Repeat for each page.

small holes and cracks

For small holes and cracks do not have to sew, you can use the neoprene cement to glue it back together. Alternatively, you can use a patch -available in all good wetsuit repair kit.

This is it! After repairing the changes, even if Pat shoulder, sit and enjoy a nice cold (or hot, if you like) drink. I find that a nice cold beer does the trick.
