Any thoughts on finding a slow leak in Redington waders in the foot bed? Thought I had it a couple of times but keeps on coming. Thanks

Man that is a tough one if it is in the neoprene. Are you sure it is not in the seam that attaches the stocking foot to the wader?

We used to use Butt Spackle on the boys around camp. Not much complaining from a man with his butt sealed shut. After a couple of days, you would start seeing small bubbles where the leak was. What if you ran the waders by your tire shop. They'll find the hole. Cheers, JP

Fill the bath tub with water. Put the waders in like a balloon and see where the bubbles come from. Do one leg at a time. It maybe easier to sit in the tub rather than bend over the tub.
