Dinghy/rib valves

[Baldy881]

Hello,

I'm nearing completion of a refurb on a dinghy I picked up cheap for fishing. The last thing I want to do is use some internal sealant in the Chambers to prevent any minor air escapes.

I've bought the correct stuff, but need to pour half the container into each of the two chambers and don't have a clue how I'd get this through the valves. Don't want to go butchering the valves at this stage because I don't know what I'm doing!

So, can anyone tell me how I get the sealant in before I can inflate and tumble as per the instructions. Pic of the valve type below...



Many thanks

Could be wrong but I think that if you use the correct tool (Or possibly needle nose pliers) the valve should screw out.

Assuming you mean the inner part of the whole black bit? Sorry but I'm clueless about boats! I'll look into that though thanks

Do you think you should be trusted out in the water 😆
