Drysuit repair and alteration experience.
Per Bill Tuthill:
Could be the latex in your jacket was of higher quality, or newer. Perhaps this 303 business is an urban-stream legend. But probably not, given all the equipment vendors recommending its use, for example: Dunno if my seals are/were latex or neoprene, but before I started slathering them in 303 after every use, I was getting 18 months absolute max out of a set of neck/wrist seals. Now I'm getting more than 3 years... Also, I've discovered two ways to toast a set of seals virtually overnight: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1) Leave the suit in a vehicle that gets very hot inside. 2) Store the suit in one's garage near to an old 1920's-era beer refrigerator that's emitting ozone. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- PeteCresswell |
