: ok any material engineers out there that know what is the best sealent for
: sealing a PVC film drybag? I will be running wires through the side.

Try H-66 Vinyl Cement. I use it when gluing PVC skins. It's available at
PVC dealers ( Mauritzon Inc. in Chicago) and auto interior repair places.
If used properly, the PVC will delaminate from the polyester core before
the glue will fail.
