Paddling Pool Repair: can you use a bike puncture kit??

[mosschops2]

Afternoon all.

Simple as that really! I tried yesterday, and it didn't appear to work!! Could be because:

a) there is more than one hole (Doh)
Rubber solution and bike repair kits just don't stick to pvc
c) hmmmm......

I know one came with the pool, but I've no idea where it is!!!!!

try gaffer tape.

Good call! Of course, I'll have to go out and buy some probably!!!

 

[Mr Phoebus]

Gaffer tape does work fine.
I've seen it done, it looks a bit Wayne & Waynetta, but sod it! It works!

Insanity! Gaffer tape is up there with bread and marmite in the "must have in the house at all times" stakes

Parky?? 27-28 degrees here yesterday, and much hotter in the sun!! Even today it never got below about 24 degrees!!

I actually checked out some patches c/o ebay - at £1.49 I thought it was worth the risk!!
