Patching hole

Hi ive just got a repair kit but I only got the single glue type, bought this before I found out the two part is best.

Will the single glue application be strong enough , and is there a right or wrong way to use the pvc, how many coats of glue to use as not instructions came with kit,

Sorry for so many questions.

Many thanks Mark

Hi, 1pack adhesive should really be considered a temporary bond, so would recommend keeping the 1pack for emergency repairs and buying a 2pack repair kit - ours come with full instructions otherwise we have an inflatable boat repair guide on our website that explains how to undertake a patched repair - see here, or feel free to give us a call.

Be aware that most glue has a shelf life of a year (at least the 2-parts.) Don't plan on holding onto it for too long.
