I need to complete patching of the tubUpdated 2 months ago

For small punctures:

1. Punctures less than 1/8” in size can be repaired simply without a patch.
2. Deflate your bath, then clean and dry the area to be repaired.
3. Apply a small drop of glue to cover the puncture, and let it dry 12 hours before reinflatting


For large punctures requiring patching:


1. Deflate the ice bathtub, lay it flat and wait for it to dry.
2. Cut a patch that is 2 inches larger than the tear/rip all the way around.
3. Use alcohol to clean the repair area.
4. Apply three coats of adhesive to the patch and the board. Wait 5 minutes in between each coat.
5. Place the patch over the tear/rip. The adhesive will react quickly, so make sure the positioning is precise/accurate.
6. Use the roller to ensure the patch lays flat and even.
7. Wait 24 hours before re-inflating the tub.

:warning: Do not leave the ice bath in direct sunlight until the adhesive has set
