How do I
Help please.

I have brought some new boots and wrist seals for my dry suit. I know that I have to remove the tape which is glued around the joint. I thought that using a hair dryer to cook the glue would be the quickest method, but I now not so sure. Can anyone please give me some tips or ideason how to loosen the glue so the old seal will come off easily.

Yep - gently with a hair dryer is the way. Once you can get and "end" of tape start peeeling, and just use the hairdryer to keep it soft enough to come off. It doesn't take very much.

Good luck!
