Yes, rubber based PSA's do have their limitations. However, Tear-Aid Type A uses a rubber based adhesive and has a proven track record. I'm sure everyone would agree that the life/performance of Tear-Aid Type A is more than enough for repairing bladders.Rubber based adhesives will dry up over time and eventually fail.
As explained by sharkz, PU based glue does not work with the ORANGE bladders (I'm assuming that Stormsure is a PU glue but I'm not familiar with it).
sharkz could adhere a patch of Tear-Aid Type A where he wants to place a valve and then use a PU glue to adhere the valve to the Tear-Aid (Tear-Aid being a PU film).But now my problem is that I bought some orange bladders and of course Stormsure doesn't adhere to them !!
Here is how we test valves and bladders at our manufacturing facility: http://kiterepair.tumblr.com/post/49267 ... ves-we-are
