West Marine Inflatable Boat Sealant

by West Marine

$59.99

Our sealant finds and stops leaks too small to find any other way!It's specially formulated for use with inflatable boats, rafts and tow toys. This sealant forms a bond with the interior fabric of the inflatable, stopping or "sealing" slow leaks and preventing future leaks from developing.In one easy step, leaks are cured from the inside, which are virtually impossible to find from the outside. Our Inflatable Boat Sealant is the only product of its kind which allows for future deflation of your inflatable (for storage, etc.) without the skin sticking to itself and making re-inflation virtually impossible.It will seal the leak(s) and keep your inflatable firm for years to come. And Inflatable Boat Sealant can be used multiple times, so if your inflatable develops a new leak weeks or years from now, you can use the sealant again.Bottle contains one (1) quart of sealant.How it's UsedDeflate the boatInject the liquid sealant into the air chambers through the valvesInflate the boatTurn the boat end-over-end and side-to-side, making sure that the entire interior is coveredIt's sealed and as good as newHow Much to UseOne quart of Inflatable Boat Sealant is sufficient to seal small leaks on boats 12' long or smaller. On boats larger than 12', there is a formula for calculating how much Sealant to use for each air chamber: The basic rule is: 1/2 ounce of Sealant will cover 1 square foot of material. Using more than the required amount is not better.The Formula for finding how many square feet of material there are inside your boat is:(Length of the Boat in feet) x 12 x 2 x (Diameter of the tube in inches) x 3.1416 -:- 576 = Number of ounces of Sealant needed to treat the boatThis number, divided by the number of air chambers gives the amount of Sealant needed in each air chamber.How To Tumble a Bigger BoatThere are a couple of options available to those who own inflatable boats too large or heavy for one person to tumble. One option is to call several friends and ask their help. (When choosing this option, always remember the Cardinal Rule of Boat Repair: When you're out of beer, you're out of friends.)With Friends:Deflate the boat and inject the Sealant in each air chamberRe-inflate the boat to rigidityHave
