HH-66 Toluene Free Vinyl Cement 4 oz - PVC & Vinyl Glue for Pools, Tarps

I came across this HH-66 Toluene Free Vinyl Cement, in the 4 oz. can. After doing extensive research online for my specific project. I purchased a used, but in excellent condition, full size, tonneau cover for my F150. I have a tool box in the rear and I wanted to cover the exposed bed. The tonneau cover had a length of 72" and i had to shorten it down to 45". As a handyman by trade and an RC hobbyists at heart. I took the tonneau frame apart and put it back together, almost achieving a factory finnish. 1. I performed a small test on two strips of vinyl. I didn't clean them (intentionally) because I wanted to test the cement on unclean surfaces to check the level of adherence. The cement bonded phenomenally! 2. Prep your surfaces/wipe both sides with alcohol before applying the cement. 3. Please note: The cement dries as you brush it on, if possible, I suggest working on small manageable sections like 5" to 10" sections at a time, brush on quickly. Once a desired section is complete, move on to the next piece immediately! "Do not waite to bond the pieces together after brushing the cement on them. Once the 2nd strip is covered in the cement start bonding the ends together so they don't dry-up on you in the process....if they dry, your going to be left with a weak/ poor bond, the ends may lift or you will end up with air bubbles trapped between the vinyl 4. Wetter is better! You need both sides to be tacky wet, not tacky dry. I can't stress this enough 5. Press and hold for a few minutes, I used duct tape, blue painters tape and a variety of different size binder clips for my application and it worked great, get creative 6. Take your time, my specific project took roughly 3 days. I worked on it mornings and late evenings. I wanted to finnish my project but I wasn't in a rush and it turned out great! 7. The smell wasn't overwhelming for me, (I have worked with an array of chemicals) but if your sensitive to smells, yeah, it's best if you work outdoors, a garage, a shed, or a porch or just crack open a window. 8. My seams bonded extremely well, tight, no water leaks, no issues, no lifted ends. 9. Clean up is a snap! If you don't have thinner just use your 91% rubbing alcohol on a rag and wipe everything clean, it will break down the cement the same way. If you made it this far, I hope the small details described in my review will help you during your next project (s) i would use this on flexible thick vinyl products, not the cheap flimsy stuff. Preferably on tonneau covers, pool covers, air mattresses, vinyl tarp repairs, etc. Just to name a few. Also, if you intend to use this cement on PVC pipes, don't! Just go to your big box store, they sell a kit specifically designed for PVC pipes. Reminder: Always try a test piece first, before moving forward. This way you will be able to move forward confidently. Take care all, just a handymans honest perspective.

I’ve tried countless vinyl repair glues and tapes to fix leaky pool liners and worn inflatable items, but none perform nearly as well as this HH-66 Toluene Free Vinyl Cement. The 1oz compact bottle is easy to control, letting me apply thin, precise layers without messy overflow or waste, which is ideal for small pinpoint leaks and tear repairs on delicate vinyl materials. What I love most is its toluene-free formula. It has a mild, non-irritating odor, making it safe for indoor and outdoor DIY use without harsh fumes. Once fully cured, the bond is incredibly strong and impressively flexible. Unlike rigid glues that crack with movement, this cement stretches with vinyl and PVC surfaces, resisting peeling or splitting from bending and water pressure. I used it to patch a tiny leak on my above-ground pool liner and fix my boat seat vinyl cracks. After weeks of full sun exposure and constant water contact, the repairs hold perfectly with zero water seepage. The waterproof, weather-resistant performance is outstanding. This professional-grade adhesive is a game-changer for all vinyl and PVC repairs.

This product works as advertised on SUP. I had a small nick at the factory seam between top and bottom halves of my SUP. I followed the directions and first glued the seam back together as best I could and then inflated the board to low PSI to establish the shape for adding a larger patch (using SUP manufacturer patch material) to overlap the seam and serve as a back up since I doubt I could repair the entire seam separation. Added some more PSI but still on the lower end for the next hour. Then took it up to full pressure and let it sit overnight. Holding pressure really well and this board is useable again (before repair would be un-useable ion 10 minutes tops)! Absolutely recommend this glue! I will adjust the review if down the road the repair fails but I do not anticipate this.

Holds well as it is intended to. Did a few patches and attached a gopro Camera mount The only issue I had the brush was like a fan, not a neat brush, had to use one from my kids painting kit.

How was the item? HH-66 Toluene Free Vinyl Cement 4 oz - Vinyl Adhesive- purchased to repair a 6-8” tear in inground pool liner. The tear was above waterline (no idea how it happened). I researched on costs to have liner repaired. Costs for vinyl liner above waterline is $150- $350 plus materials in my area. I had salvage strip of current liner. I decided to do it myself. If repair failed, I’d only be out cost of adhesive. Watched a few videos of vinyl pool liner repairs and several of those videos showed them using this HH66 adhesive. Checked Amazon and found the 4 oz can that was more than enough to make the repair without having to purchase excess product. Following directions on can, I applied adhesive to both the liner and the patch. It sets up within 3 minutes. Easy to apply with the built in brush. Just know that when it’s applied, there’s no room for adjusting much. This adhesive sticks in place immediately with very little wiggle room for lining up once patch has been installed. It’s been two weeks since application. I’ve checked edges around patch and interior of patch. Patch is still solidly stuck in place to the pool liner. The price is well worth it in my circumstances of facing a costly repair. In my opinion it’s waterproof too because after two heavy rainstorms there’s no evidence of the patch coming away from liner. There is a faint odor but no more than one might experience from a product like nail polish.

I grabbed this tiny tube for my dorm because our floor keeps popping inflatable chairs and pool floaties. The tube looks small but it lasts. I patch stuff for my roommate and the girl down the hall too 😂. I clean the vinyl, spread a thin layer, wait a bit, then press hard. It holds up in the campus pool and on the gross grass outside. I like that it’s toluene free so my room doesn’t smell wild. One night we fixed an air mattress right before a sleepover and it didn’t leak once, which made me really glad i had this.

I use this on vinyl flooring and it works great. Waterproof. I wish it dried faster than it does but it's still fairly quick.

When my grandkids visited, we discovered a slow leak in one of the big vinyl pool floats. I bought this glue on my son-in-law’s suggestion. One careful patch in the afternoon and the next morning the float stayed firm for hours while the kids played. That quiet success made me glad I tried it.

Brilliant stuff, I used this cement to repair a Lay Z Spa hottub. Other glues and patches could not hold, but I applied HH-66 in multiple layers, then followed by a patch. The repair has held completely for weeks. I would highly recommend this product for inflatable hot tub repair.

Very strong glue.

Excellent

An efficient adhesive absolutely ideal for patching our fabric covered aircraft hangar.

Used this to glue new vinyl covers to fiberglass resin seats for my boat. One year on and the seats are still looking great and the glue is still holding strong, after a boating season. Well worth the money, highly recommended. Also glued a sole back on some trainers that the shoe shop failed to stick. Great stuff!
