5.0 out of 5 stars Great PERMANENT Fix for Tire Punctures
Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2024
There are many glueless patches out there that are faster and easier to use. But they are intended only to get you back home if you get a puncture while out on a ride.

These are far superior for when:

A) You have a slow leak in your tire from a tiny puncture. Most of my punctures are this type, and I discover them when I am getting ready to ride and my tire is flat. You're already at home, so a temporary fix for a single ride would just be wasteful. You use this permanent fix instead.

B) You have replaced a tube, but now want to bring your old tube "back to health" so that it can serve as your spare. Remove the temporary patch (if applicable) and fix it the right way with this kit.

C) You are not in a big rush during your ride and you get a flat. If you're not racing against the clock (or the sun) and have at least 20 minutes to let the glue dry, using this patch kit rather than a glueless one means not having to re-do your work later.

It's RARE that I find myself in a circumstance where a glueless patch would be my choice. This is a great patch kit that does what it should, and the fixes STAY fixed.

Happy riding!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good price but only a few patches in kit.
Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2024
The price was good but I would have liked to see a few more patches in the kit. I also wish the manufacturers would make a cement container that would not dry out quickly after being opened and over a long enough period they will dry out even when not opened.

5.0 out of 5 stars Things to consider for successful tube repair.
Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2023
After trying other brands that I got locally from places in my community and having them fail to perform as expected, I decided to try this brand. Since using slime patches, I have not had any problems. Patching a hole is relatively easy but the correct procedure must be followed. Most importantly, the area around the hole needs to be thoroughly scuffed to remove the smooth shiny surface. When done correctly the area should have a dull flat appearance. Do not overdo it as this could reduce the thickness of the tube make it weaker. I prefer to use an abrasive piece of sandpaper instead of the metal grater as that may be a bit too aggressive. Anything between 40 and 100 grit would be fine. The glue reacts with the rubber and softens it as part of the vulcanizing process when the patch is applied. It is better to have this area slightly bigger than the size of the patch otherwise the edges of the patch may not bond properly and begin to peel back when the tube is inflated. After applying the glue/ vulcanizing fluid, do not immediately apply the patch but wait about 30 seconds. You can blow on it and it will have a dull hazy appearance unlike the wet shiny appearance when it is first applied. It is not necessary to use a lot of glue or apply it too thick, just enough to cover the area. When removing the foil from the sticky side of the patch, try not to touch the underside of the patch as oil and grease on your fingers may contaminate the patch and reduce its effectiveness. Do not try to remove the clear plastic on the top side of the patch. Try to align where the hole is so that it is under the center of the patch. A little off is not a problem but you do not want it to be too far off from center. Sometimes it is easy to lose sight of where the hole is after the glue has been applied. After the patch is fitted, press firmly down on it and massage the area. Let it sit for at least a minute before inflating. The hotter it is outside the less time required for the bonding process between the glue and the adhesive on the patch to be completed. Then place the tube back inside the rim and fit the tire and inflate. By this time a few minutes would have passed and more than enough for the glue to bond. This is assuming that you are on the road doing a repair. I prefer to have an extra tube that I just remove and replace and do the patching at home where time is not a factor and you can even inflate the tube and put under water to see if there are any bubbles, but on the road that is not an option. Finally, even though the clear plastic over the patch can be removed after the patch has been applied to the tire, yes it looks better, but it can sometimes have a tendency to want to lift the edge of the patch when doing so, I would just leave the plastic film where it is. But if you really need to remove the plastic, try to break it somewhere over the center of the patch so you can get under it and pull it away towards the edge of the patch, not from the edge towards the center.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worked great on bicycle tube .
Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2024
Had a small hole in my wife's bicycle tire that needed to be patched. I had first tried the cheap stick on patches but they failed within an hour. So I tried these rubber patches with glue and the tire hasn't lost any pressure in two weeks , so seems to be working out great. Was a little worried due to the small size of these patches , but they seem large enough to work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Patch came off.
Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2024
I tried to patch a large innertube, and I followed the instructions exactly but the patch came off within 24 hours. I patched it in my basement and never even took it outside. The only thing that may have caused it to come off was lower then normal temperatures at the time because it was winter time and my basement was about 50 degrees.
