In this video I demonstrate how to repair a set of pin holes, a puncture, a seam split on an inflatable pool toy. I use cotton balls and rubbing alcohol to clean the spots before repairing them. Then I uses rounded patches of vinyl and a Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) based glue to bond the patch to the toy. Specifically I am using HH-66 brand of vinyl cement. Please comment below. Any suggestions or corrections are completely welcome.
If planning to do something like this yourself, make sure to do so in a well-ventilated room so as not to breath the glue fumes.
While I love to describe the many projects I have done, if they inspire you to do something, you do so at your own risk. The glues and solvents I use can be toxic and vinyl is not breathable and can cause suffocation.
