Aquaseal UV is a quick-curing, clear-drying adhesive that bonds directly to neoprene, nylon, and GORE-TEX® fabrics. It dries instantly when exposed to sunlight or UV light, providing a waterproof, flexible, and abrasion-resistant seal. At Micro Rafting, we recommend this for fast, stress-free field repairs, ensuring your packraft is back in action without the overnight wait.
Ideal for patching punctures in sleeping pads, sealing small holes in waders, or coating fly line knots, this small but mighty adhesive works even under cloudy skies. Whether you are on the river or in the camp, Aquaseal UV is the perfect multipurpose formula for immediate gear recovery.
