How should I properly repair a hole in an inflatable bonzai slide?

Asked by Arick (27points) May 27th, 2008 from iPhone

I just got my kids a big bonzai water slide and my dumb dogs chewed a palm sized hole in the base pool wall part. They gave me some patches in package but I was wanting to give it some extra support. My idea was to put on patch and cover that with gorilla tape. Any ideas will help, thanks.

Sorry you have not gotten any responses. There is a family of repair products that are not too pricey and are available at marine stores that will probably be more effective than gorilla tape.

have you tried silicone? I just repaired my kids inflatable pool with a small tube of household silicone gel. it is about 2 bucks for a 3oz tube. for a big tear in the bottom of the pool i smeared the silicone over the hole, on the underside, then placed a piece of painter’s tape (it’s what i had on hand) over top of the silicone. then on the inside of the pool i just smeared a bit of silicone over the tear and let it dry. for some tiny holes in the side of the pool i just plase a small dot over the hole. It worked great!! and it was easier than trying to use those dumb repair kits that never seem to stick. good luck!!
