Inspirion Seal - 28th Feburary 2011
Problems: Very small leak, found where the rear legs meet the body, repaired and reinforced the whole area. After 24 hours the front leg chambers were nearly flat and the main chamber slightly soft.
Solution: Found most of them via a few water tests, all really small scratches apart from the rear regs.
Test Time: 72 hours (3 days)
Thoughts: This is one of my oldest toys, so nice to get it repair.
Bestway Sea Lion - 28th Feburary 2011
Problems: A sew small holes.
Solution: Found them via the water test, dab of glue, all sorted.
Test Time: 72 hours (3 days)
Thoughts: I do like these Sea Lions, so when one gets fixed fixed, it's good news to me.
1986 Intex Gator - 17th September 2010
Problems: A selection of small holes on the tail and a few legs, along with both main I-beams having problems.
Solution: Found most of them via a few water tests, finding the ones on the legs with a light test, all really small.
Test Time: 72 hours (3 days)
Thoughts: Always nice to see and work with something so old, I hope to see much more 1980's inflates.
Palgrave 24" Ring - 07th August 2010
Problems: A pair of small holes, I believe something went right through the ring.
Solution: Found them via the water test, dab of glue, all sorted. (No damage pic as I couldn't get a good pic)
Test Time: 72 hours (3 days)
Thoughts: Very pleased to work on my first ring, makes a change from the animals I get. This one only took a week to sort out including postage times.
Testimonial: "So happy to get our ring back in useable condition again, Sno was really helpful making sure things went smoothly and his work is very tidy and was only charged the postage. Now we know where to go if the unfortunate happens again. Thank you so much."
1998 Intex Dolphin - 07th August 2010
Problems: Nearly all seams on the tail leaking, some repaired with super glue.
Solution: Clean up all super glue, and fixed all seam leaks, using a water test to make sure all fixed as they kept cropping up, but all air tight now.
Test Time: 72 hours (3 days)
Thoughts: One of the very common intex dolphins, not the first one I've saved either, trying to make it a habbit.
Grey Dolphin - 05th August 2010
Problems: Nearly all seams on the tail leaking, some repaired with super glue.
Solution: Clean up all super glue, and fixed all seam leaks, using a water test to make sure all fixed and left out for a fortnight.
Test Time: 336 hours (14 days)
Thoughts: Most wouldn't salvage it, but this one has been stored in a wet cardboard box for a few years unknown to me. Just felt really sorry for her :)
1994 Intex Whale - 07th February 2010
Problems: About 6 seam leaks, some repaired with super glue, also a few pin holes.
Solution: Clean up all super glue, and fixed all seam leaks, a water test found the pin holes.
Test Time: 72 hours (3 days)
Thoughts: Not one of the rarest to salvage, but this one is one of my oldest and has been stored in a wet cardboard box for a few years unknown to me. I'm happy she's all fixed now :)
2002 Intex Lil' Shark - 17th December 2009
Problems: Been nearly cut into 3 pieces, with problems during testing.
Solution: Mended all 3 parts back together and repaired the seam leaks that appeared during testing.
Test Time: 72 hours (3 days)
Thoughts: Most likely one of the hardest challenges I've had to face, having a mound of vinyl and returning it back to a shark.
