  |  Gluing turbo sole soles?! Any recommendations out there for gluing the rubber soles of turbo soles back onto the neoprene sock? Mine are just starting to peel slightly and I think are leaking a bit as a result... |

| I went through this a couple of months ago - it's available from a lot of distributors and ships chandleries world wide (is used for RIBs and Lifeboats not just neoprene and neck-seals). It is however on the controlled substances list for flying - as is cotol hardener .. as I found to my annoyance in May.. For Ali - I suggest local sources - and Bostik International sales were very helpful in getting information about local stockists.. they gave me the local contact for Singapore.

| Have a look for Aquacontact instead then. It's a contact adhesive suitable for drysuits, it's in a tube and doesn't require a hardener to cure. There must be a Bostik or similar adhesive distributor in the Middle East that could supply something similar locally to the two pack glue.

| It's also a good standby if you run out of beer as well. I've had many happy times with a tube of Aquasure and a confined space.
