I don't think you can patch them. I have tried every thing I can think of and nothing has worked yet. Call the manufacturer and ask them. Post IF you ever get the answer. :doh

What about some green slime with like, alittle bit of goop on the outside.. I would think that would work..

Using cement that you use on PVC pipe works. Just use the primer to clean the spot. Try stretching the hole so the cement compound gets in and not just on the surface. When it cures it will be like a little plug inside and out.

Was thinking that perhaps a bicycle tube repair kit might work.

I would try some silicone based sealant, being sure to squeeze some through the hole, and then putting a good layer on exterior. Either that or else the PVC glue.....

i watched a buddy of mine actually melt the small hole in his back together but it looked kinda wopsided afterwards and he wound up chuncking it
