Stormsure Boot, Shoe and Wader Repair Kit Clear 5g

Product Information

The good news is that chalk is usually provided with every puncture repair kit. Wait until the adhesive has dried before you add any chalk or else you’ll create a bit of a mess on your wellies. Once it has dried nicely, add some chalk around the area that you applied the patch to. Your Repaired Wellington Boots I received delivery of the repair kit the very next day. Incredible efficient service! So now I am ready to try my repair. I followed Stuart’s advice and one thing he mentioned was about spending time with the preparation. I put on 1 layer which set into the boot (level dropped while setting) and then after 12 hours added another layer, then a third. I did think that the Stormsure adhesive could work for other splits in boots or wellies but genuinely didn't believe it could work on the sole (which moves a lot when walking). Yet it worked really well! I have been wading in streams and walking up some boggy terrain in them and my feet are dry (now). Really impressive. Thank you Stuart especially for the advice and amazing product! Ideally, you will find an alternative method such as using a bonding adhesive. Ensure that it’s suitable for use with footwear. If it isn’t, it could actually do even more damage to your boots. Do your research and find out what works. If you’d rather repair your Wellington boots in a way that doesn’t require regular repatching, consider using double-sided tape. If you go this route, you'll need the following supplies:

To rebuild areas such as heels, use Stormsure in layers and allow each layer to cure before applying the next.

I wondered if there was anything I could get that I could just run along the seam and maybe repair the leak? Something like a kind of glue, or silicone? Find some rubber in your puncture repair kit and cut it to the ideal size. The piece should be slightly bigger than the hole or split. When it is, it ensures a much better repair. A larger layer of rubber can also help to prevent water from entering the hole or splitting again. Do you have a Power of Attorney? MoneySavingExpert.com founder Martin Lewis explains how this crucial protection works, why it's more important than a will, and how to get one in the latest episode of ITV's The Martin Lewis Money Show Live. Have you ever noticed white marks or ashy gray streaks on old or even new rubber boots? This is a normal process called "blooming." While blooming is characteristic of natural rubber, they aren’t very nice to look at. Here’s how to properly remove unsightly streaks using a rubber conditioner.

Dry Naturally: Avoid using direct heat sources like radiators or heaters to dry your Hunter wellies. Instead, let them air dry at room temperature. Don’t forget to stuff them with newspaper or boot shapers to maintain their shape during drying. PRO TIP: Aquaseal SR is also great for fixing delaminated soles, building toe caps, flexible knee patches, and rebuilding worn soles.To re-attach soles to uppers squeeze Stormsure into the affected area and place the boot on a flat surface and place a weight inside the boot to hold the repair together. Remove the weight after 12 hours.

Keep Stormsure in a cool dry place away from incompatible materials, direct sunlight and sources of ignition. If you’re not sure how much you need to cut, cut a patch of rubber that’s a little bigger than the hole or split. Apply A Thin Layer of Adhesive Use the rubber solution or adhesive that comes in the kit. Apply a very thin layer and leave it for 2-3 seconds. Next, take the patch you have made and gently place it on top of the solution or adhesive. Ensure that the edges have been pressed down firmly. As the boots that we sell are all made from 100% natural rubber, they will naturally deteriorate with time.

If you have a zip in your boots, make sure you keep it clean and free from grit. When boots are clean, spraying the zip with the same silicon-based spray, waxing or using the amazing Ezip will keep it moving freely. It is worth noting that 95% of zip failures are down to grit!

Prep your leaky rubber boot by cleaning it first. Remove all dirt and grime with a low-suds soap like Revivex Boot and Shoe Cleaner and following these cleaning instructions. NatWest, Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) and Ulster Bank, which are all part of the NatWest Group, will now shut at least 172 of their bank branches in 2023 and 2024.Hi, That’s amazing news ???? The time spent in preparation is definitely worth while! So glad it has worked so well (we knew it would if applied correctly). To slow this process, it is worth washing the boots down with water (and a light detergent if necessary) when they get muddy or at least every 2-3 months. Then, when dry, spray them with a quality silicon-based spray (we sell Aigle Swipol and Le Chameau sprays). This will ‘feed’ the rubber and stop it ‘crazing’ and perishing, keeping it supple and completely waterproof. Just as you might do with a bicycle tire patch, you may find that you may need to patch the area of your boot regularly if you want to extend the life of your wellies. You should also familiarise yourself with how to store Wellington boots to ensure they last even longer. It should be strong enough not putting etc grooves in but as it is in the area that bends a lot any extra strength will help.
