3 weeks ago I purchased a 18' x 48" intex pool with an air ring on top. Within 1.5 weeks we discovered a leak in the air valve for the ring. It kept deflating and dunping water. What to do...Being a nurse I had extra non latex gloves around. I cut the thumb out of the glove and used it to seal the air leak on the valve. The top (male) part fit into the bottom (female) part and the leak sealed. 1 minute fix
