Things used in the video:

along with a UV light of your choosing.
Because EXPED is such a fan, we have designed a Field Repair Kit featuring the UV Glue, it includes everything you need including a small UV light. Please check it out on our website [ Ссылка ].

Silicone Applicator/Brush, from what I see on Amazon, there are plenty of things that would work, so there is not a "best" choice, just what you happen to decide works for you.
