Re: Repairing Logo tubes?
If your occurrence is a small hole, I would suggest patching it by using a lighter/hot source to mold the plastics back together. I have yet to do it but I may test it up at our shop tomorrow. I will let you all know how the results play out.

We did this a few times, sometimes even molding on plastic from other sources/tubes(ie. a snow tube). It wasn't a permanent fix, but it definitely lasted longer and worked better than just tape.
