Products Ball Doctor, white

Inexpensive fix. Works on balls with inner bladder but only if the leak is coming from the valve stem and not due to a damaged bladder. I had a lightly used Spalding TF-1000 game ball that wasn't holding air. Put a few drops of water on and around the valve and saw air bubbling so I knew the air was leaking out from around the valve stem. Follow the instructions exactly as it says. I deflated the ball completely by putting the needle in and squeezing it down as much as I could until no more air was coming out, took the white cap off of the syringe and it slid right in easily (if it doesn't you can use a bit of vaseline/vegetable oil, whatever), dispensed all of the product into the ball, immediately inflated it to the proper psi, then spent about 5-10 minutes dribbling normally, side to side, with some pound dribbling mixed in, etc. Just make sure to dribble it around real good. Let it sit overnight, had to add just a little bit more air the next day. There was no more air bubbling from around the valve with I put water on it. The ball now holds air like you would expect a ball to hold air and its been about a month so this seems like a pretty permanent fix.

Worked initially, but the ball deflates now as soon as it is filled.

Watch 1-2 minute YouTube instructions first. I did it incorrectly the first time and it didn’t work. I was able to use the same tube the next day and this product fixed my son’s expensive soccer ball. I was definitely a little skeptical, but I highly recommend this product. The instructions it comes with aren’t the best. YouTube has good, short videos.

Used it and the ball still deflated, maybe I didn't do it the right way.

We have a basketball with a small leak. It is small enough that the ball is useable for a couple hours after being inflated but large enough to mostly deflate the ball after a full day or a full night. I took a shot and tried this, even with the mix of good and poor reviews. We followed the instructions, including bouncing and spinning the ball around a lot to distribute the liquid around the inside. The leak was no better after use.

Easy to use but it could damage the rubber needle hole. So far, the ball is maintaining air pressure. This was used in a soccer ball that gets kicked around a lot. The single use packaging is nice and convenient, but the price of a similar bottle and syringe could be used on multiple balls instead of just one. So far, it doesn’t add too much noticeable weight and is durable to be picked around for months without needing to refill the air.

Didn't solve my problem. Ball inflates, then gradually deflates over time. Perhaps it would work for others.

It arrived quickly and dreamed up my soccer ball. 👍
