Does this work on sealing airfill mylar balloons

We use this to seal coffee bags and to create a seal for shrink wrap. There is a timer to adjust how long heat is applied. We did several tests to get the timing just right and with our coffee bags we flip the bag over and re-seal the bag to ensure all four layers are melted together. Test, test, test. It's great for small production but not great for detail work.

I don't know. This is the first time I have used this product. I bought it to seal paper clay dolls. It seems to do a good job of sealing. It is a slightly shiny finish and stays sticky for a short while.

This product is great. It should work on water toys if you allow the right time for it dry properly and if the hole is not too big, since the patches they give you are not that large. I used in a inflatable bed. It does show some signs of leaking but it holds well. Hope it helps.

I've never tried in foil balloons but the principal should be the same. Hi-Float reminds me of Elmers glue, you put a bit inside, press and rub to coat the inside, inflate the balloon and the Hi-Float helps keep the gas/air from escaping. I'd say try 1 and see.

I use this balloon pump for inflating Qualitex latex twisting balloons. I do not fill any balloons with helium.

Hi, it will not work. The air kept coming out. It will better to use glue cement and a patch. Good luck!

I no longer have this product I used it well over a year ago and passed it on to a friend however, I can confirm that it worked great on my airbed pool float for a small damage tear and it is still airtight,

I have these balloon sticks and used them for the latex balloons, and they worked great. They look to be the same sticks you would use on the small Mylar balloons too. The cup part measures slightly less than 1.5" diameter.

Yes it works. Although I am using it to seal poly bags, I have used it earlier to seal vinyl bag.

It will work but be careful not to have your paper get too wet. I suggest spreading the hifloat around the balloon first then inserting the paper.

For a blow up bed I use "Coghlan's Airstop" vinyl repair (including on seams). I think I once tried Aleene's as an add-on to the patch that came with my inflatable bed, which gave added strength to the patch. I don't know why I did not use Aleene's on seam subsequently, other than instinct that it wasn't for holding air pressure. The Coghlan's worked beyond my expectations (it also is great for inflatable pool toys).

The tying portion would work regardless of what you fill the balloon with, but the filling portion is only for water. I think you can buy the tying portion as a separate item - search for "tie-not". Here is one: http://www.amazon.com/Tie-Not-Water-Balloon-Tying-Tool/dp/B004S2HYNW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1402014283&sr=8-3&keywords=tie-not

Worked for me..... read all the instructions.. if it is a small hole or tear glue it shut first ...wait until next day then apply the patch over the entire surface and let it cure a day or so or longer... still working and holding air as normal after several fills.fixed several months ago ..still holding after several fills....used on an air mattress only...

I have this unit and the sealer works fine the problem is the bags , all the bags I have tested within a day or so they are full of air again. Depending on what you are sealing ...any water in bag tends to break the seal.Bags cost money and just do not keep their seal very long.In my opinion if your sealing something dry it will hold anything wet doesn't.Your just better off with the big permanent sealers for anything long storage.

Yes it will work to help preserve the seals and o-rings on any pneumatic air gun, good stuff, for co2 put a drop on the top of the canister before putting into the weapon(Air Gun) I use it on my Crossman 990 and 1322

No! It's terrible for balloons. I got two for this purpose - ended up having to blow all the balloons (1000) by mouth because these wouldn't work.

Technically, yes. You can seal them with a vacuum sealer but they are really meant to be heat sealed with an o2 absorber in the bag with the contents. The best way to seal mylar bags is with a hot iron set on high heat. Get a length of wood about 20" long x 8" wide x 1" thick. Set the wood on a bucket, lay the open end of the mylar bag (after contents and o2 absorber are added) on the wood board and iron the last 2" of the bag until no air can be squeezed out. (Usually about 6 to 8 passes with the hot iron should do the trick).This method works best for me in my experience. Technically, yes.
