Reading how Bar's Leaks work, it would seem to me not suited for
waterbed.

One web pages says........
convenience. When Bar's Leaks is added to the cooling system, the
pellets quickly dissolve under heat and circulation, releasing tens of
thousands of individual Rhizex Particles which continually circulate
in suspension throughout

I would be interested if someone has actually successfully tried this,
though.

I think (hope?) it was a joke.

A patch attached with aquaseal or urethane caulk might work better to fill the
gap that would normally result where patch covers the old patch edge.
