Just light the end of the stiching coming out, and it will shrink back in.

I realise it almost heresy asking this question here but I reckon it would be interesting to see how many people have issues with their Picasso suits.

WARNING: CONTAINS CARROT

I have a few picasso suits. I shore dive year round and give them a hammering. They are comfortable, hard wearing suits and i'd recommend them to anyone. Never had a problem.

The Torelli kevlar gloves are by far the best i have used on crays. Never had a problem.

my 2 cents.

Puss

Hmm I was comparing a picasso dark suit with my beuchat one just last week, I think the stitching and glueing on the picasso is Sh*t compared to the quality of the beuchat suit. Ive heard of people complaining about picasso suits, but they seem pretty popular so they can't be that bad?? I'm sure it go's both ways.
I'm happy with my beuchat suit, the price was right and everything on it is still perfect. Perhaps when it does fall apart i'll try a picasso!

Went for a dip with Blinky about a week ago and got pounded on the rocks, tore a whole about the size of a dollar coin in my left knee, any chance someone can mmaybe put a few illustrated images of how to repair such a hole, neoprene glue and stitching, so far there has been a lot of talk to talk but no real how to's.

Guide to fixing wetsuits.

Thank's for the link Nanna, one of the other guy's posted same one earlier in the post, i hear "use Aquaseal", "don't use Aquaseal", would plain old balck neoprene glue be sufficient, also do you use rod binding cotton for the stitching?

I use aquaseal but thats just me. It's to protect the stitching more than anything.

Sure is rod eyelet binding nylon. I bought it at mossips for a few bucks for a roll of it.

The picasso brand wetsuit glue you'll find at legendary is brilliant. I stupidly bought a very fragile picasso chicle 5mm suit which has a slick outer surface. Fantastically warm suit but I've torn it 3 times. I've stuck the right arm back on and stuck together a 30cm tear across the back and a 10cm tear across the back of the knee. Without the picasso glue I wouldn't have a 5mm suit anymore.
