Vinyl Repair Kit Review: Bounce House Seam Tear Repair Posted in: Reviews – Tags: ,

I received your vinyl repair kit yesterday and immediately put it to use. I had a 21 inch tear along the seam on the tube used to inflate the bounce house. I thought this one was a goner but then my wife found your kit online and we gave it a try. We ordered the 5 foot vinyl repair kit.

The kit included everything I needed to make the repair including clear instructions which are always a plus. I laid the bounce house out on a nice flat surface and prepared the area to be repaired using the included alcohol pads. After a few minutes of cleaning, I sized out a piece approximately 2 feet long. I was very happy with the overall width of this patch as it easily covered the entire area I had to fix. The backing peeled away with ease and I began affixing the patch as described in the instructions. Application was a breeze and took less than a minute. Once it was on there, I rolled the edges and smoothed out the entire area as best I could applying pressure to make a good seal. The patch stuck the first time and did not need to be held for very long at all.

The instructions indicated that using a heat gun would increase the cure time and while I didn’t have a heat gun, it was a bright sunny day. I laid the bounce house in the sun making sure the patch was fully exposed. I did this for about 30 minutes while I worked on some other projects. One hour and fifteen minutes after the patch was applied I fired up the blower and much to my enjoyment the repair was a success. I couldn’t be happier with this product.
