Found a new cut on the shin of my right pad.

Any ideas about what I can or should do for this? I do have red pad skinz on hand....thanks @Chenner29

P.s.  look at that stitch work.  It's like gear porn.

Contact cement or some other flexible adhesive would be my method of choice. I would normally attempt to sew a cut but yours looks like it is in an area where glue may be a better option.

This is what I've been using to seal basically any cut I've had. It's always worked and held up well. 

But @seagoal, those are ruined now. It's time for a replacement.

pfft, ha.  You're trying to make me divorced and homeless.

You got any pics of the process or finished product or the stuff you use that you can share?

Thanks. 

Can you maybe share like a how-to step by step?  Also, I have red pad skinz to cover this after, too.

It's pretty straightforward, I just make sure everything is dry before I seal it up. I apply enough shoe goo with a toothpick or similar device and if possible, lightly clamp the affected area for a couple hours post application.

Fair enough.  I'll give it a go this weekend. Thanks for the tips.
