Fixing a leak on the seams
#2
[#0000FF]The key is how long is the seam tear...and is it in a major stress area. Sounds like it might have been an overinflation problem...maybe from leaving the tube aired up and in the sun.

Aquaseal will fix most leaks on your vinyl air bladder. It takes a few hours to cure. I would run a small bead over the hole and let it sit on the level for a few hours. Then put a second larger blob over the first one and let it cure for at least 12 hours. There is an accelerant called Cotol you can buy to speed up the cure. But I have found that you get a better patch without the accelerant...and letting it cure naturally over several hours.
