Hi all,

After a recent trip, my trusty Sea to Summit sleeping pad ended up with two holes around 2-3mm. I used the little patches which came with it but it still leaked over night (maybe didn't have enough time to properly adhere?). Any ideas? New ones aren't cheap.

Cheers,

FM

Stick it in the bath to double check you've not missed a hole. Ask me how I know

Aquasure glue is good, also I have used black witch. But the proper patches should be fine if you have them

I used Tenacious Tape on mine, has worked a treat.  I found the leak by listening very carefully and eyeballing it.
