I want to use this on a wetsuit, can you sew it, and is it waterproof?

It's plastic tape. I am no expert on sewing, but I would think the tape would just tear at the holes.

It is not waterproof. It has a silicone cover you can put on it for water protection.

You can use Nikwax on all waterproof fabrics! Just make sure to read the instructions before use!

Although it's well made, I doubt that it's "waterproof". I'd say "water resistant".

if you are in the water it will be fine, not for on land tho. it is like a thin wet suit

This thing is not waterproof even to the least bit. Even with seam sealing if it rained you would get completely soaked. This thing is as porous as a sheet of computer paper. Maybe if you seem shielded and sprayed it with a waterproof spraying it would do okay but even then I would want to hang a tarp of some sort over it just to be safe.

No, it's not waterproof. If you must keep it dry, wrap it in a water-proof garbage bag.

It will resist water, but if soaked will not come out dry. I have used it on winter gear to keep dryer and gear for Tough Mudder and other obstacle races. So when jumping into freezing water you will get soaked but I felt it dried quicker and cleaned off afterwards a little better.

I cannot directly answer your question but I can assure you that these are waterproof. They are made of the material that dry suits are (not to be confused with wet suits).

yes, its waterproof for maybe for up to 2 ft under water. I took it on a cruise, used it on snorkeling excursion in Aruba.no problems, all was good.

I have never tested the blanket to see if it is waterproof but my best guess is no. I use this in my hammock to augment a wool blanket and / or sleeping bag depending on the air temp. It is basically an insulated nylon blanket that I liked so much I bought another one. BTW...this is not really big enough to serve as a bivy anyway...too small unless for a child.

I do not think this is a very good fabric for swimsuits, but it might work. Lining will be needed.

They are.............but since they are neoprene and have sewed seams, they won't last long. Personally, having owned three drysuits and multiple wetsuits, I wouldn't do that.

Not sure if you think it will stay dry. I don't think so. I bought these for my husband and myself, we wear it alone in warm water diving. Under our heavier suit in cold water diving. It helps to get the thicker/heavier wetsuits on. But I don't think it stays completely dry. Just an under layer. Hope this helps you. Deb

Hi I've used it on a nylon windbreaker, the outer synthetic cover of a sleeping bag and a tent out of parachute material, whatever that stuff is. had to spray it all twice to waterproof it, but no problems whatsoever. hope that helps.

Hmm, I know it has kept me plenty dry, warm, and not sweaty and I have given it plenty of action, including violent swims. The neck gasket does leak a tiny bit, which happened a couple of weeks ago at Kilchis River on the SHORE when I got wave after wave of heavy rain dumped on me for a good half hour. Get one of those LL Bean fleece fishing jumpsuits for $50-60 to wear under it, and a sweatshirt to wear between it and the drysuit if it's cold outside, and you will be fine.

I have not used it in water yet, but I do not think it is waterproof. It doesn't look like it would be waterproof, but maybe it is. The instruction booklet is silent on any waterproof capabilities regarding the remote. Check out the reviews on Amazon and you may find someone speaking to this issue.
