My first attempt was retrofitting a neoprene collar with a latex. It took a bit of fooling around but it turned out great.<br /><br />I could have brought it to a local shop and they would've charged about 35.00 labour but I figured it's useful skill to have.Sean Dawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00083182073195315693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407547817731551597.post-77503183911734746852010-06-22T06:29:20.650-07:002010-06-22T06:29:20.650-07:00Your both braver than I am.

My dry suit is only a year and change old, but when the time comes it will be going to Kokatat. <br /><br />POAdventure Otakuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12215628711923335166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407547817731551597.post-77437607077352666802010-06-22T04:40:22.603-07:002010-06-22T04:40:22.603-07:00If you place the wax paper over the rubber while y...If you place the wax paper over the rubber while you iron it, it prevents the rubber from burning/sticking onto the iron? I guess if the iron gets too hot and melts ther rubber, it can ruin your iron. <br /><br />Using wax paper to prevent the aquaseal from sticking where it's not wanted is a great "invention", isn't it?Sean Dawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00083182073195315693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407547817731551597.post-82789919985403137122010-06-22T04:09:40.088-07:002010-06-22T04:09:40.088-07:00I applied the iron directly on the rubber because ...I applied the iron directly on the rubber because Kokotak say not to iron on the fabric. Using just the iron allows for more precision.<br /><br />I used wax paper under the glued area to prevent it from sticking to the support I had underneath.<br /><br />Tony :-)Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03811529922250366230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407547817731551597.post-67571934774839285562010-06-21T15:41:04.036-07:002010-06-21T15:41:04.036-07:00Did you apply the iron directly to the rubber or d...Did you apply the iron directly to the rubber or did you use wax paper? I heard that using the wax paper prevents the rubber from sticking to the iron and making a mess of it. I used the wax paper when I was removing the backing tape on a neck gasket a few weeks ago.Sean Dawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00083182073195315693noreply@blogger.com
