I read through your directions for fixing the leaks, and I have a question: It seems like you have the top up when you apply the glue, but when you're letting it cure, do you have the top down? And do you do the inside and outside of the vinyl at the same time, or do you do one in one day, and the other the next day?
Thanks,

Hey John, sorry for not replying sooner - I was out in the field
I have the top up when I am applying it and when it is curing. I did it this way because I wanted the glue to set when the top was in its most strectched condition. That way when I put it down the glue can relax/contract. If I had done it the other way around I suspect that the glue would have been too stretched and would give out.
In answer to your second question, I did the inside one day and the outside the next day - there should be no reason you cant do them the same day though...
The fix I made is still holding perfectly - I dumped a few buckets of water on it at the weekend and not a drop
Hopefully you get the same results...
