1.   Cut a rounded patch at least ¼” or ½” larger than the hole or cut.
2.    Clean the area where the patch will be placed with water and/or mild soap.
3.    Make sure all surfaces are dry.

   damaged area.  Let it sit for three to five minutes or until tacky.

       you see air bubbles.  Mark the location of the pinhole.

3.    Allow glue to dry completely.
4.    Do not inflate the kayak for at least twelve hours.
