Inflatable Santa Claus repair attempt. Will Santa live ? Can I save Santa and Christmas?
In this video, watch as I disassemble my inflatable Santa Claus and attempt a repair. He was damaged by a sever wind storm we had a couple of weeks back.. I do get a surprise when I removed the motor.
Is it worse than I thought?
Here is the link to my Christmas light display that I used to set up years ago!

Thank you! Merry Christmas!
i had a yard full of inflatables and they had cheap crap motors that look like a computer fan and a 12-volt adapter and finding a replacement motor it costs more than a new inflatable on clearance sale. seems like the bigger the inflatable the better quality the fan and the material.

I have a few with the smaller computer fan motor as well. You're right, they are not very durable. Especially in the snow and water. I prefer the bigger ones anyways. :)
If tou give santa a coat of flex seal clear the inflatable will manage to stad up by it self
I’m now “ haunted” with the insides of an airblown fan... I fixed a snow globe, 12 ft reaper, crawling animated reaper.
I had to get rid of my 15 year Old Christmas polar bear last year. Too many holes and duct tape!!! Wish I would’ve watched this earlier! Merry Christmas!!!

Its not the fan messed up its the fabric it needs to be coated with clear polyurethane he will come up with no problem

@@bunberrier yeah i tried that before but that does not work. I recommend flex seal clear instead of polyurethane because it does not crack at all.
paint it with polyurathane and he'll be ready to go

Thank you. That’s not the first time someone tells me something similar. I guess they lose their “seal” in the fabric over time.

Are you referring to the spray? I’ve seen a commercial of a guy who puts a screen door at the bottom of a boat and sprays the screen then drives the boat lol. I did not even think of that stuff. Thanks for the idea. I might just try that in the fall!
