Repairing Inflatable Castles
Owning a business that sells or rents inflatable bouncers is a great way to make money. People from all over love using these for pool parties or at carnivals. It is a great way to keep the kids entertained and to allow the adults some quality time on their own.
When running a business you have to make sure that you keep your investments intact. Other wise you will be pushing money down the drain. Each one are made with durable material – but rocks, sticks, and other debris can puncture through it and cause either a slow or major leak. Learn the best way to repair it so you don’t have to spend hundreds in trying to replace it.
Inflate the castle so that you can determine where the leak is. Try to do this in sections ifit is a large castle. Also try to do this before you rent it out to make sure that all parts of it are in good shape. That way if you find a leak you can fix it before you send it off to be used.
When it is inflated search and listen for the source of the hole. If the leak is slow you might not be able to find it. When this happens you need to use water and soap. Pour in tap water and some soap. You will know immediately where the leak is.
Use a felt tip to mark where the leak is. Take out the puncture repair kit and apply solvent to a plastic patch. Apply the patch over the puncture so that the hole is sealed completely. Apply more adhesive to the outside of the patch and allow it to dry.
When the it is dried pour in more soapy water. If there are any more bubbles being released than you did not seal it properly or you have found another leak. Try to keep it inflated overnight to make sure that it is sealed properly.
