Well one thing I learned is that if the hole is small, meaning small enough to not warrant a ptach of material, the best and quickest method is a drop of Super Glue ( non water soluble like Zap-a-Gap) inside and out, the chemical reaction bonds to the materials and itself through the pin hole and hardens like rock.

The spot is maybe a 1/4 inch around the 1/8 inch puncture. Tested after a several hour cure and not a drop of water came through.

I rembered I did this on my first ever breathables and it worked slicker than shizit. On bigger stuff I will definetly do the aquaseal and patch gig. The Zap-a-Gap hole fixes outlasted the waders.

Thanks all for your suggestions.

Why even try.........
