so I'm in a bit of a predicament. I have a meetup next month and my tail has a large hole in the fluke. not so much a hole but more of a tear in the seam area. There's also a strange flap of silicone in the waist area, but I'm not so concerned about that. I don't have pictures at the moment as I'm at work but can take pictures when I get home. It's my Fliptails tail. I really don't know much about silicone and my last top I tried to repair with silicone did not work out and the silicone refused to cure. So what I'm saying is, I just need a bit of help.

Can you upload a picture?
I may give you some advices if I can see the damages :)

I can only get a picture of the flap in the waist right now because my tail is buried under laundry for some reason but this is what that looks like

I see!
Fortunately it's not a big damage and it can be fixed easily ;)
Spread a thin layer of glass silicone (if I remember right it is called Sally or something like that) and let it dry ;)

You're welcome dear!

Remember to let it dry for two or three days especially for the damage on the fluke because won't come in too much air and it could need some more time to dry 😊

I have just managed to rip my fluke by positioning it the wrong way, will sil poxy or something like that repair a ripped fluke?
