help hole in vinyl

Hey folks, I have a 1/4 inch hole above the water line(thank goodness:cool: ). It looks like a small finger punched through the vinyl above the water line. Should I patch the hole with leftover vinyl and a repair kit or is ther a better method(silicone calk)? I am clueless about this one. Any help,lessons learned would be gr8.

Thanks,
Ed

Concensus around here is to get "Boxer #100 Vinyl Adhesive" and use that leftover liner. I couldnt find the Boxer adhesive locally, so I ordered online.

Since the hole is above the waterline I'd apply the patch, using Boxer-100, then use duct tape to hold the patch in place for a few days until it bonds. After a few days pull off the duct tape and you may be able to use isopropyl alcohol to remove any duct tape goo. Guessing at this. Boxer-100 is a slow acting adhesive that won't aggressively attack the patch and curl it, but, it takes some time to bond. I was the one last year that started the suggestion about Boxer. Researched a lot of adhesives when I had a deep end slit in my liner and found this stuff worked just fine. Other vinyl cements are agressive and curl the heck out of a patch before you can apply it.

Thanks for the advice:) . I had bought this stuff when the pool was built(what luck:cool: ). I was just glad it was above the water line.
