Please bear in mind when sending a PM or contacting someone, if like me having little or no experience & more importantly limited typing skills, please try not to start, slowly at first & has happened in my experience, "getting down to business" almost at the start, for me personally it was slightly ...

Hi, Rainwearseeker,
Thanks for the more info, sadly I do not think I have enough experience to suggest any further help, the rip/holes probably can be patched but the alterations/changes, way out of my league/experience.I wish you well in your endeavours, but as they say in a well known TV programme ...

Hi,

At the end of 2024 I posted a request for any information for assistance in repairing a PVC garment which required some tlc, namely SU10 one piece overalls which I had purchased from our friends at PUL, a number of years ago in a material which is no longer available.
Initially I was asking about ...

Thanks, I did have a very quick look at Elements website, I thought it had a very familiar look to our friends at PUL website, when time allows I will investigate further.
