I have patched vulcanized rubber waders with Sportsmans Goop, it is the same stuff as Household Goop and Shoo Goo and virtually the same as Aqua Seal. You need to clean the area well with Laquer Thinner, you can thin the Goop with Laquer Thinner to get it to flow in a little. After letting them dry over night, put a skim coat over the top.

You should be able to get Aquaseal and thinner called Cotal 240 at a dive shop, I have a Dry suit repair video that tells you to thin the Aqualseal as well as using Cotal to clean the area before you start.

Super Glue is strong, but not flexible. Same with epoxies.
