Hole in hip waders?

Does anyone know what type of patch kit is required to fix a hole in Helly Hansen hip waders? I have tried several different kinds of patch kits and cannot get one that will stick to this type of rubber. The manufacturer was contacted and cannot offer any solution and furthermore they do not manufacture a wader anymore. H E L P !!!Hole in hip waders?
"Aquaseal". Have used it on my chest waders and worked excellent ;)!!! Was out drift fishin' for Salmon and tore a hole in them. D_ _ n water was cold, a friend had some with him and viola'. Link will show ya' what it looks like and explains how to repair leak/hole.

Amazon link has an Orvis repair kit that comes with Aquaseal and it looks pretty good. If ya' don't want to hassel with the online orderin', might want ta' check out some local fish and tackle stores. Good luck and hope ya' get em' fixed ;)...

a product called "Gorilla Glue". i have used it on neoprene as well as the breathable type of waders and no leaks. i have also used it to re-attach rear view mirrors in vehicles. if it will stick to glass it should stick to anything.

best of luck.
try apoxy resin its the strongest glue known to man should stick anything to anything. hope this helps
