Need up to 30 seconds to load.
all right it's a quick tip today it's
all a lot of videos on YouTube saying
how to repair a hole in a mattress but
not a lot on how to find them figured
I'd do a quick one I don't really make a
lot of videos like this so but I figured
this was really important to share as
you can see I've already soaked the
mattress a lot did a lot of trial and
error and I found the best way to find
the hole with soapy water I've seen
people say to set them at the air
mattress up on the side by the way this
is a self-inflating mattress I've seen
people fill it with water and sit on it
and the water squirts out the hole some
people say set it on its side and put
your ear real close to it and go back
and forth over every surface of the air
mattress until you find it what's your
lips and put your lips up to it and
you'll feel the cold air blowing out
onto your lips I've heard a lot of
different tactics but honestly the soapy
water is work best for me and I'll show
you how it works
so the top of the mattress right here
looks about the same as the bottom
except it has this like I don't know
fletchie material on it which is okay so
the one thing I would recommend doing
because you probably have something
hiding in your carpet let's say you have
carpet it's gonna puncture the bottom
before it's gonna puncture the top so
I'd recommend trying this on the bottom
before you move to the top but my whole
just so happens to be on the top and
I'll show you how I found it I filled up
a water bottle full of water from about
70% water and I did two squirts of like
hand soap just enough to get it that
that nice so beat you see the suds there
the nice so biee
the nice OB mixture I guess so what I
did was and and the first the first
thing you're gonna want to check is
these seams right here okay so I thought
about probably the leak was sprung
somewhere on the side where weather
where the glue meets up where where it's
attached but I found that a lot of holes
that I found online that they were
patching were found in this in this
crease kind of area right here so that's
where I started looking first I started
on the on the bottom first moved to the
top and sure enough that's on the hole
so soapy water sprayed it along and yeah
and you can do kind of a wide angle I do
kind of a very extreme type of type of
angle here and I'm really going in and
I'm making sure every bit of it you want
to get it nice and wet make sure every
bit of the surface is covered make sure
every bit is covered here get it in
there and and you're gonna see a little
bit of bubbles that's just the soap but
when you see the hole it's gonna be it's
gonna be a parent it's gonna be very
noticeable you'll know it as soon as you
see it look at that right there all
right
it's so obvious you you won't miss it
it's it's the easiest way to find any
hole you if you're sitting on the
matches trying to push out a little bit
more air watch out I'll sit on it and
show you what I mean if you're sitting
on it thinking that it's gonna make it
more apparent look you can even hear it
right there okay it's gonna squirt back
at you see that if you're sitting on it
with all the extra air pressure it's
gonna squirt back at you all right look
at that its so op you see a little bit
of these bubbles right here a little bit
don't get distracted by that look for
the big ones you're gonna see it it's
gonna be very noticeable so that's the
quickest and easiest way I found to find
a hole in an air mattress
