I somehow managed to get a puncture in my double blow up bed on first use. I tried fixing it with the patch that came with it and it still goes down after a while.
Can anyone suggest any other way of repairing it or should I just bin it.
Thanks.

Had the same problem. Bought an Intex double raised bed and shelled out £50+ for it. Got a puncture within a fortnight and the patches are useless. We tried the silver waterproof Duck tape, bicycle repair kits etc and nothing worked.
If anyone has had success with a repair.......I take my hat off to them!Herman - MP for all!0 -

word of warning..........
be careful with using certain glues or adhesives...many glue's and adhesives dont react well with pvc or rubber suade fabrics used with airbeds, they are too strong for the fabric and sometimes, the glue's can melt the fabric on the airbed.
