Wader repair

I found a tear in my neoprene waders near the knee that is not leaking Yet and need to fix it.  What is the best product out there for neoprene repair?
 
I may be heading to cabelas and they show 2 products for sealing.  Aquaseal and UV wader repair.  Has anyone used these?  Thanks

    H2O, Walmart sells neopreme wader repair, in a little tube, for about $6, I think it doesn't take as long to set up as Aquaseal, I have used it in the past, it is made by Hodgeman's. it works pretty good.  John

    H2O,
     
    I would contact the store where you bought the waders and tell them you have a leak and if they are not that old, they will replace them. Do it now before the really start to leak. I had a friend who had a pair of neoprenes that were 5 years old that Cabela's replace free for him.

    Thanks Guys,
     
    I think they'te from Gander.  I'd be hard pressed to find the slip though.  Thanks for the replies.

    H20,
     
    If you paid with a credit card, you may not need your receipt. Cabela's exchanged waders for me without a receipt as they were able to track the credit card for the receipt. Hope this helps!

    Like 71 said.  I have returned waders to Cabelas and gander mtn. in the psat.  They never gave me any trouble and the one time they were a few years old.  I bought the stuff wal mart sells for 6 bucks and it has worked fine.  Even repaired my water bed with it.
