FLEXIBOND Vinyl Acetate Ethylene (VAE) is a type of water-based adhesive that is known for its high bonding strength and resistance to water, heat, and chemicals. Flexibond is composed of a polymer blend of vinyl acetate and ethylene, and it is often used in applications where a strong and durable bond is required, such as in woodworking, furniture manufacturing, and paperboard lamination.
Compared to other adhesives, Flexibond is considered to be a more environmentally friendly option because it contains fewer volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and has a lower carbon footprint. It is also non-toxic and odorless, making it a safer choice for use in indoor environments.
What is a Seam Sealer?
A seam sealer is a material used to seal gaps or joints between two surfaces to prevent water, air, or other substances from penetrating through. It is commonly used in automotive, marine, and construction industries to seal seams in vehicle bodies, boats, or buildings.
There are different types of seam sealers available, but most of them are made of a combination of polymers and resins. The most common polymers used in seam sealers are polyurethane, silicone, and acrylic, while the resins used are usually epoxy or polyester. Each type of sealer has different properties and is suitable for different types of applications.
Seam sealers come in different forms, including tapes, liquids, and pastes. Tapes are usually used for temporary seals, while liquids and pastes are more permanent

Should I stitch or glue my wetsuit?
The choice of whether to stitch or glue a wetsuit repair will depend on several factors, including the size and location of the damage, the type of neoprene used in the wetsuit, and your personal preference.
In general, stitching is a good option for small tears or punctures in non-critical areas of the wetsuit, such as the arms or legs. Stitching can be effective in closing the gap and preventing further tearing, and it can be a relatively simple and inexpensive repair but the downfall here is that it may not be 100% waterproof if the stitching is not tight.
On the other hand, glue can be a good option for larger or more complex repairs, particularly in areas such as the seams or torso where stitching may not be as effective. Glue can create a strong, waterproof seal that can help prevent further damage to the wetsuit.
Ultimately, the best option for repairing your
