How to Repair a Hot Tub Water Pipe

What happens here

The presenter uses a Leatherman multi-tool, specifically its knife attachment, to meticulously cut and peel away the existing Flex Seal tape from the flexible PVC pipe connection. The tape was applied as a temporary measure to address the leak. He notes the strong adhesion of the Flex Seal, indicating its effectiveness as a temporary patch, but also the challenge in its removal. The goal is to fully expose the original PVC pipe joint and surrounding area to prepare for a proper repair.

Goal: The presenter carefully removes a temporary Flex Seal tape that was wrapped around the leaking flexible PVC pipe joint.
