THere are patch kits designed just for holesin an air matress,they normally include a patch and sealant. In a pinch a strip of Duct Tape over the hole should do the trick.

If the mattress is made with vinyl you need a vinyl patch and adhesive. You can buy cheap kits for patching either pools or bike inner tubes. Either will do. You have to submerse the mattress in water to locate the leak.

How can I repair a leak in the valve of my Intex air mattress?

To repair a leak in the valve of your Intex air mattress, you can try using a patch kit specifically designed for inflatable products. First, locate the leak by inflating the mattress and listening for the hissing sound. Once you find the leak, deflate the mattress and clean the area around the valve. Apply the patch according to the instructions provided with the kit, making sure to press firmly to ensure a secure seal. Allow the patch to dry completely before inflating the mattress again.


How can I repair my air mattresses while they are being used?

It is actually easier to repair the leaks while the mattress is inflated. Simply put a piece of masking tape over each leak to mark it and seal it temporarily. Then, purchase a patch kit from any local hardware store (or use the patch kit that came with your air mattress) and seal the previously marked holes while the mattress is inflated.


How to Patch a Hole in an Air Mattress?

Nobody likes to fall asleep on an incredibly comfortable air mattress only to wake up and find that they’re lying on a completely deflated piece of plastic due to a tiny leak. Holes in air mattresses are quite a pain, but fortunately quite easy to mend if the right tools are on hand. Locate the Leak It would seem sensible to simply listen for the usual hissing sound to locate the leak. However, in some cases, the leak can be as tiny as the point of a needle and it’s not exactly one of the simpler tasks in life to complete. If you cannot hear a hissing sound that gives away the location of the hole, inflate the air mattress outside on a patio or in the yard, cover the entire mattress in soap or some kind of liquid or chemical capable of producing bubbles. After coating the entire message with the chosen liquid, search for an area that is bubbling. The bubbling area will indicate where the leak is at. Use a Glue Gun One of the affordable ways to patch a hole in an air mattress is to apply hot glue to it with a glue gun. Apply the heated glue to the leak and give the glue time to cool down. After the glue has dried, apply pressure to the mattress and monitor the site of the hole. If air is still seeping through, apply another slightly larger coat of glue on top of the original. If desired, place a few strips of duct tape over the glued area to secure the fix that you’ve made. Buy a Patch Kit Usually buying a tire repair kit will fix the leak if other methods of patching won’t do the trick. Vinyl patch kits will also provide the same remedy for the hole. Most air mattresses are already made of vinyl, so patching vinyl patches would probably be the most sensible solution.

Can you fix the hole in an air bed with any glue?

No, the air bed should have come with a patch kit to make such repairs (if not or if it was lost contact the manufacturer) use only the patches and glue included in that kit as they will be compatible with the plastic of the air bed.The glue used for patching such plastics usually contain solvents that dissolve some of the plastic in the air bed and in the patch and when the solvent evaporates it forms what is called a solvent weld. Using the wrong glue or patch can cause too much dissolving, making the hole much worse; or not enough causing the solvent weld to fail when the air bed is reinflated.
