Making a long story short, Pool is 27" round. I have a large hole (tear) in the liner. About 4'X2". Its about 1" from the return.
I did patch it, twice, but seems to be still leaking as my water level has dropped 2" in the last 2 weeks. Its not hot here yet but has been extra windy.
Any suggestions on underwater patch kits with better adhesive?

Cheers from Canada.
 
Patches should be two or three thick. Cut a patch larger then the hole and glue it on. Then glue a larger patch over the first patch. then glue a larger patch over the second patch.

@zea3 may have ideas.
 
Boxer glue is said to work well, however if your tear is 4 feet by 2 inches then that is too big to patch. I’m going to assume the hole is 4 inches by 2 inches. Still big for a hole. You would want to lay two circular patches. The first patch should be 6” x 4” and allowed to set before applying the second patch which should be 8” x 6”.

Do not attempt to pull off loose pieces of the old patch. You can carefully trim off large loose pieces with small, sharp, blunt point scissors if needed.

This is an example of the Boxer patch kit.
