How We Repair Your Rubber Gear

  1. Detailed Assessment:
    Once you submit an inquiry, we’ll carefully review the photos and descriptions you provide. We’ll assess the size, location, and type of damage, and let you know exactly what to expect, including any potential challenges.

  2. Precise Color & Gauge Matching:
    We stock a wide range of latex colors and gauges, and we'll match your piece as closely as possible to ensure a seamless, invisible repair.

  3. Professional Repair Process:

    • Trim & Prep: Any torn or damaged edges are carefully trimmed for a clean line.

    • Surface Cleaning: We use latex-safe glue remover to clean away any oils, glues, or debris that may affect adhesion.

    • Bonding: High-quality rubber cement and specialized adhesives are applied to ensure a durable, flexible bond that moves with your gear.

    • Finishing: After curing, we inspect the repair and clean up any residue, polishing the piece to ensure a smooth, finished look.

  4. Optional Reinforcements:
    If needed, we can reinforce stress points with discreet backing patches to ensure the durability of high-wear areas—always discussed with you beforehand.
