Baller BrianKennedy91 Posted August 29, 2022 Baller Share Posted August 29, 2022 I've got some Polyform S-1 boat guides that I use as winter buoys. I noticed one of them has a little chew spot around the bottom where possibly a muskrat has chewed on it. It has a very small pin hole in it and I was wondering if anyone has tried to patch a little spot? I was wondering if a soldering gun or a heat gun would melt the hole back together? Anyone tried this before or have any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller buoyboy1 Posted August 29, 2022 Baller Share Posted August 29, 2022 Wally told me one time that PVC glue works really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BrianKennedy91 Posted September 7, 2022 Author Baller Share Posted September 7, 2022 If anyone was wondering, I used PVC cleaner/ primer and PVC glue and repaired the damaged buoy. I feel this same repair method would work on an evening larger gash or damage based on the outcome of the repair. Thanks Dave for the information.

Baller Kelvin Posted September 7, 2022 Baller Share Posted September 7, 2022 I've used PVC glue to patch some holes. For larger areas, I've used fiberglass cloth to reinforce the patched area with some (but not complete) success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
