hypalon glue if it's hypalon; pvc glue if it's pvc.

A quick search on here will yield plenty of suggestions as to manufacturer and sources, as well as procedural info to perform a good repair.

Single part won't last 5 minutes. Two pack is the only way to do the job properly http://rib-shop.com/product.asp?numR...For=&PT_ID=231
