When I reattached the PVC rubrail on my Avon I started with Flexset. Worked very well and a few years later still holding. Considering it is difficult to find something that works on PVC and Hypalon very happy with the results. I keep a couple around the boat for tricky repairs.

But the stuff is very expensive. At the time the cheapest online I could find was about $18 each and no large kits available. For a large job it could get pretty costly. If I recall I bought 6-8 kits which only did half the rubrail. That's when I switched to 5200.

Both seem to be holding perfectly but the 5200 was a lot messier and did take longer to cure.

Thanks kindly Jim and to the other members for the replies. The guy with the SC 4000 just got back to me and Purolator shipping wants $90 to transport a tiny box of glue because it’s a dangerous product. So I guess I’m going to look at ordering the 5200 for now because that’s probably mailable. I don’t want the patch to be worth more than the dinghy.
I asked him about the Rema 50 product and he said that any other common option would work as well

Amazon and Home Depot carry Flexset now.

recommended by swift who are one of the better RIB manufactuerers

as with all hypalon glue (?), need to watch the humidity when using

cheers,

Going to just try the 5200 for now since it was the easiest and cheapest option I could find to order here. Messy is fine at this point since our love for the floppy leaker has been diminished anyway after dragging it around a lot and constantly pumping it up in various annoying conditions. thanks again.
