408517Boxer - 4 oz Vinyl Swimming Kit

This liner patch comes with 2 thin and flexible sheets of pool liner patches. II applied this pool liner patch to the corner of an inground chlorine pool 27 days ago. The patch is working great so far. First I cut the patch 2” larger then the hole. I applied the patch with the included glue, caking it on and applying pressure, mostly to the portion under water. I definitely consider this patch to be water resistant, strong and flexible. So far the patch is still holding strong allowing us one more swim season before replacing the pool liner. I highly recommend wearing gloves during this process, if not expect to have glue on fingers for several hours.

This stuff WORKS. Long story short, bought a second hand pool, stupidly didn’t check it and of course it had holes and leaks. Well, I sandwiched the holes with this and not a drop of water escaped it. I did double the patches as the vinyl is a little thin, but they send you with a few good sized vinyl repair sheets and lots of adhesive. Definitely a good value for the money. I pictured an example of the size and severity of the hole this kit repaired.

It works well for small vinyl repairs and is easy to use. I just wish it included a little more adhesive for larger repairs. Overall, a good product to have on hand.

Worked great for my inground pool

Worked perfectly. I did not use it in water. My pool was drained down so the hole was exposed.

We purchased this to repair a tare in our pool liner and needless to say it did not work the best at all. We even gave it an extra day to make sure that it was dry completely. It just didn't hold up for us. We followed all the directions completely.

Incredibly easy to use. If you cut and pasted in pre-school, you will probably have no trouble with this product.There is quite a bit of patch material and more than enough glue to do numerous patches.As with PVC cement, I would put the lid back on with pliers to minimize hardening over time.I patched the liner in an in-ground pool. It would have been trickier in the deep end, probably would need something weighted to hang on to, but the shallow end was easy.The patch stopped the leak from my pool and wallet immediately. I will check it again in the spring and amend this review as necessary.Now about that warning.I cut the over-sized patch and slathered on lots of cement. Being a wood-worker, I wanted to make sure the joint wasn't glue-starved.I folded it over as per directions and easily put it in place, pushing the air and excess glue out of the sides.In place and all good, less than 15 minutes from opening the package to finish.Then I noticed a few quarter-sized blobs of glue floating on the surface. I knew they'd end up in the filter, skimmer, or stuck to the liner. I was already turning blue as it was windy and chilly so I didn't worry about it and climbed out of the pool.I then realized that the excess glue on my hands was drying. It was kind of fun, like when you put glue on your hands in kindergarten. Oh, don't act like you never did it.A few minutes later I felt an odd tugging on my chest. Yep, one of those floating bits of glue had lovingly wrapped itself around some chest hair.I went to pull it off and HOLY MOTHERLESS SON OF A SEACOOK! I almost fell to my knees. In my hand was a good chunk of chest pelt.Over the course of the next hour the glue dried and I found about 4 places on my legs, 5 on my arm hair and a couple more on my torso.Some of them dried in such a way that they pulled hair out when I moved a certain way.I didn't pull any more off by hand. Over the next three days I used scissors, razors and a beard trimmer and finally had to let a patch on my shin go for about a week until I was able to get it off without skinning myself alive.All I can say is I'm really glad I don't have a hairy back.**UPDATE**It's been a year and the patches are holding fine. They are a lighter color than the liner, possibly they dried less clear or maybe it's the glue.Still quite pleased. Also, all my hair has grown back.

Worked great
