I have an aero bed and it inflates fine, but then overnight it very slowly deflates so that in the morning it is very soft and uncomfortable. Is there a way to find the leak point and patch it?

You need to submerge it in water and look for bubbles if you can't hear the leak. Fill the tub with water then do a portion at a time. Unless you do sewing in bed its probably on a seam or next to attachment points. Check the area around the valve first.
Patching kits were supplied with my aero bed when I bought it. If you can't find yours go to a store that carries them to get a kit. If all else fails a tire kit from an autoparts store should work. I'd find the leak first because some leaks on joints and near valves are impossible to patch.

Fill it up, get a squirt bottle w/soapy water,spray it on the mattress, look for bubbles, where it's leaking.Then you can buy a patch kit for a water bed or a raft (camping store) instructions incl. TA! DA! Hope this helped.
