what is T H E absolute best way to seal a inflatable. i have a avon 12'9 has a 3 inch slash in center of tube, my wife sewed it shut and then we applied a patch , following directions, and then 2 days later we used the liquid you pour inside the tubes, but then we got that same liquid seeping out of our new patch... ive heard you must seal them 2 and 3 times over, is this true... what about liquid rubber? any ideas thanks !!!

Why start the same topic over and over and over and over?... <br /><br />Just ^bump^ the original topic up every so often if you feel it's being overlooked.... <br /><br />I dunno... Fill the thing full of 2 part polyurethane foam..

Up late, again, Snapper? <br /><br />PYA - go back and re-read my response in our original query on this subject. Avon boats are made out of hypalon. Holes, rips, tears, etc can be easily patched and the patches are as strong (or stronger) that the original material.
