What sticks to EPDM rubber
 

I need to repair some leaks in our EPDM 45 mil rubber liner. Already tried
the single side seam tape. Did this when it was cold and it did not stick.

I would love to know what could be directly applied to the rubber. Would
stick tenaciously and would be 100% water immersable.

if your talking about small leaks RTV rubber from a autosuply store
works prety well I use a lot of it in my pond and filters
Learned to use it when i was in the fire dept for sealing high presure
pumps and lines

if its a lar4ge hole put a large bead of the rtv around it and mush a
peice of liner over it takes about 2-4 hours to set

Commercial roofing suppliers sell patch kits for EPDM roofing. RV
dealers also have sealant for EPDM roofs on motorhomes and trailers.
Both these products will make a permanent repair. If you do use RTV
sealant allow extra time for curing. Until it is completely cured RTV
gives off ammonia.
