Packaworld Product Repair Instructions ​

Providing you follow the care & maintenance instructions, especially around storage and transportation/moving goals, your Packaworld products will give you many years of trouble free service. That said, punctures can occur and in the unlikely event that this happens - do not panic. Packaworld products are repairable and simple punctures can usually be carried out using the 'Repair Kit'  that comes with each goal or by using a patch by following the instructions below. Where larger patches are required Packaworld recommends  to contact a reputable inflatable repair company with the skills to carry out this type of work (e.g. boat repair companies).

Leakages can also occur in seals (joints between hose and hard plastic connectors). This is often caused by goals being dropped on hard ground. Rest assured these leaks can also be repaired - see also below for instructions.
Packaworld do not provide repair services​​

Finding a leak in the valve

​If you suspect that your Packagoal has an air leak, first check the air valve by spraying [over the valve] with a solution of dish-washing liquid and a water to see if bubbles appear .

​If leak is discovered then follow the steps to the right to repair:
  1. Check valve insert is in fully closed position
  2. Check the valve housing is screwed in tightly
  3. Remove valve and check rubber flange that seals airway for dirt. Clean with warm soapy water if required.
  4. If valve continues to leak then replace the valve*

* spare valves can be purchased here  or by contacting us here 

Finding a leak in the hose

If replacing the valve does not cure the problem then to find the leak follow the instructions below: 
  • mix dish-washing liquid and water to create a soapy solution and put onto a spray gun
  • Using the spray gun, cover the hose in the soapy solution and leave for 5 minutes to show up any slow leaks (bubbles will appear).
  • Mark spot with lead pencil (do not use any ink on your tubes as this will permanently stain the hose).
  • Let the tube dry completely then undertake the repair by either using the repair kit supplied or using a patch as described in the video below.
  • SEE VIDEO FOR DEMONSTRATION  on how to find punctures

Repairs using a repair kit

PictureRepair kit includes spare valve
​With each Packagoal there should come supplied a 'repair kit' which will allow you to repair up to one puncture.

A spare air valve is also included and can be used in the unlikely event that the valve needs replacing. Should more repair kits and/or valves be required then these can be purchased here.

Watch the video to the side before undertaking any repairs using the repair kit. 


Repairs using a patch

Packaworld recommend that patches should be applied by qualified boat repairers, though it can be simple enough providing you use the right tools and materials.

If you fancy giving it a go yourself follow the instructions in the video - be sure to watch the video a couple of times first so you are familiar with the techniques used.

Main materials required which are usually available at your local boat chandlers:
  • Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) solution or equivalent PVC primer
  • Bostick 999 Glue
  • PVC Plastic for boat repairs​

​Repairing leaks in hard plastic connectors

​Leaks can occur in the hard plastic connecting joints and are usually caused by the equipment being dropped or banged on a hard surface.

Do not despair as these leaks can be simply repaired by following the instructions in the video and using a specialist Silicone Sealant - Sikasil NG (NOTE: Please also follow the application instructions on the packaging [of the sealant]). 

Once the repair is undertaken DO NOT inflate the products for at least 24 hours to allow the sealant to cure. 

Should leaks continue to occur then repeat the process by removing the Silicon and cleaning the joint.
