Can I Repair My REEF Mat?Updated 11 days ago
Your REEF mat came with a patch kit that should be able to repair any minor cuts or holes. If you no longer have the glue, you can either buy another glue/patch kit from our website here, or you can pick up vinyl repair glue at any hardware store.
Our recommendation for vinyl glue would be HH-66 Vinyl Cement. This can be found on amazon or any local hardware store or hobby shop!
The first thing you'll need to do is thoroughly clean the patch and the area of the mat with the puncture with acetone. Repeat three times for best results.
You'll be applying three layers of glue. Apply a thin layer to both the patch and the "to be patched" area and spread it around evenly with a brush. Allow three minutes to dry between each application.
After the third application of glue to both surfaces, wait three minutes and then press the patch against the "to be patched" area evenly and use a spoon or something similar to apply pressure throughout the patch working from the center towards the edge. Wipe off any excess glue with acetone.
Let the patch job fully set and dry for 24 hours before you attempt to inflate the mat.
