Iron Mend Fabric Repair Kit Neoprene Scuba Diving Dive Wetsuit Gloves Booties Hood Surfing Surf Snorkeling AUTHORIZED DEALER!!! by McNett

The girth of my thighs always causes the inseams near the crotch of my pants to wear out before any other wear begins to show. When this area of my neoprene workout pants started to wear thin and make it too embarrassing for me to do floor work when anyone else was around to see my pasty skin or underpants through the ever-widening thin spots, I finally got this patch kit and fixed my pants. It took a little creative maneuvering to get the most out of this patch and get sufficient coverage over the worn spots on account of the contours of the crotchular region I was needing to patch. Here's how I did it:1. Assess the damage2. Create a paper template that sufficiently covers the area to be patched3. Cut pieces from patch material. I used 2 patches for the worn spots in the crotch on both sides (inside & outside) on both the front and back of the pants then used another little piece to cover a small rip on the waistband (not shown here)4. I don't have a tailor's ham or a mini iron, so I used a piece of scrap fabric and glass-head pins over an old oven mitt to use my own hand to manipulate and hold the material while pressing small areas of the patch with the tip of my large iron5. Position patch and use glass-head pins on seams to hold in place while ironing6. Spot iron patch a little bit at a time, covering less contoured areas first then spot iron areas on either side of a pucker (being mindful not to iron a pucker or fold into the pants)7. Carefully use scissors to snip the patch over the places where the pants are puckering (sorry for the blurry image - it was difficult to hold both the pants and scissors while taking a picture)8. Spot iron both sides of the snip on either side of the puckerI did this in on both sides of the pants (inside and out) on the worn spots on both the front and back of the pants. It was probably overkill, but I had enough of the patch material for this amount of coverage and I didn't want to risk further wear on either side. The patches held up so well, they outlasted the whole rest of the pants. I would totally use this product in the future if/when I ever again have worn or torn neoprene to fix.

Práctico y portable

Ideal para reparar neoprenos. Si el agujero es grande , debes pegarlo con el adhesivo color negro para esto.

Sticks on well. Been there for about 6 months. Corners started peeling off. But just re-heat with the iron and it sticks right back. So far the patch is sturdier than the original neoprene underneath
