hole in footbag

crazydwarf · Post by **crazydwarf** » 26 Aug 2004 18:25

Oh woe is me... my mr. sandman has a serious hole in it, like not just leaking sand, but a serious hole, it's not that big but it's deffanatly big enough for sand to come out... any way is there any way for me to patch it up, such as super glue... oh well, must wait for my new footbag to arive...

If your good with the needle, you could sew up the hole. By emptying out all the sand, ripping that glued seam apart. Flipping the bag inside out and then sew it up. Flip back and filling the bag up again then glueing the side back. Or you can glue, by useing a hot glue gun, I belive. But If I were you, I would sew it up. Hope this helps

Thanks for the advice... I won't be needing it much longer because I should be getting a new one soon, so I might try and glue it up... Thanks for the help.

Use some sort of glue like Elmer's Fix All and just put a bunch on the hole and then wipe it off as much as you can with a paper towl and there will be a thin layer left that is plyable and washable.

Quick and Easy repair.

Or sell your bag to me and I'll fix it up nicely.

i used a glue stick and a piece of clear tape

I shredded immediately after application for an hour and it dried later and it still is holding up

I recently sewed a pin sized hole in my sandmaster. SEEMS to be working anyways.

i say a dab of super glue is best, and like lon said, wipe it off somewhat so it is a thin layer.

Super glue isn't flexible at all.

I recommend GE Silicone II Sealant for patching bags. You can get this at any hardware store.

I use Elmer's Stix-All glue and I'm selling them for $5 plus shipping.

It's dishwaser safe so it's perfect for footbags and anything else. Very supple bendable and seethrough.

what about shoe goo? In small doses I imagine it'd be pretty flexible.

Shoe Goo worked very nicely for mine. i put a descent size slit in one of my old ones and put new fill in it. Just put a thin layer on the bag and it hasn't busted or leaked.
