Anybody know where to get the heat-applied seam tape used in waders?
Sometimes you get a foot or two with the waders, but I'd like to find it
in bigger lengths

Scroll down a bit.

I ordered from these folks once a few years ago when making a large tarp.

But... have you considered using a glue like McNett's Seam Grip instead?
Works wonderfully well and there's no ironing.

Seam Grip is great. Similar to Aqua Seal, but remains much more
flexible after drying, and comes with a neat applicator. I had a pair
of waders repaired by Orvis recently, and they used Seam Grip instead
of retaping.
