Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Incredibly easy to use. If you cut and pasted in pre-school, you will probably have no trouble with this product. There is quite a bit of patch material and more than enough glue to do numerous patches. As with PVC cement, I would put the lid back on with pliers to minimize hardening over time. I patched the liner in an in-ground pool. It would have been trickier in the deep end, probably would need something weighted to hang on to, but the shallow end was easy. The patch stopped the leak from my pool and wallet immediately. I will check it again in the spring and amend this review as necessary. Now about that warning. I cut the over-sized patch and slathered on lots of cement. Being a wood-worker, I wanted to make sure the joint wasn't glue-starved. I folded it over as per directions and easily put it in place, pushing the air and excess glue out of the sides. In place and all good, less than 15 minutes from opening the package to finish. Then I noticed a few quarter-sized blobs of glue floating on the surface. I knew they'd end up in the filter, skimmer, or stuck to the liner. I was already turning blue as it was windy and chilly so I didn't worry about it and climbed out of the pool. I then realized that the excess glue on my hands was drying. It was kind of fun, like when you put glue on your hands in kindergarten. Oh, don't act like you never did it. A few minutes later I felt an odd tugging on my chest. Yep, one of those floating bits of glue had lovingly wrapped itself around some chest hair. I went to pull it off and HOLY MOTHERLESS SON OF A SEACOOK! I almost fell to my knees. In my hand was a good chunk of chest pelt. Over the course of the next hour the glue dried and I found about 4 places on my legs, 5 on my arm hair and a couple more on my torso. Some of them dried in such a way that they pulled hair out when I moved a certain way. I didn't pull any more off by hand. Over the next three days I used scissors, razors and a beard trimmer and finally had to let a patch on my shin go for about a week until I was able to get it off without skinning myself alive. All I can say is I'm really glad I don't have a hairy back. **UPDATE** It's been a year and the patches are holding fine. They are a lighter color than the liner, possibly they dried less clear or maybe it's the glue. Still quite pleased. Also, all my hair has grown back.
