Patching liner

[MJuric]

So My liner has a rather large tear, 2-3", in a star shape. Looks to me like there was a small tear and it tore in a few different directions like cracked glass. Couple questions. The tear is above the water line, for now so a few questions.

1) Can a tear this large be successfully repaired, even temporarily?
2) What's the Best method, glue etc to fix it?

Everything I've seen appears to be as easy as a bike tire patch, is that the way to go?

Thanks,

Matt

Might post a picture of the tear, that might help get you the best advice

You can certainly try and have nothing to lose. Get a big patch / piece of liner and some boxer glue and goop it up and apply it

Yes it can be patched to squeak balance of season.
The rip shape & it being above waterline means replacement time, best to go into winter with a new liner.

Picture. Tear length is about 2 1/2 to 3 in.

That material is cooked. Patch it & enjoy for balance of season. Best to go into winter protected with new liner.
