Perfectly explained❤ i'm from Poland, i got the same situation, but different repair kit i got Internet on side road, and your video helps me ❤thank you
Every plug ive had has starter leaking air eventually, never completely fail though. I guess driving style is a big factor i do alot of spirted driving so now i stick to just patches
I've used this repair a lot and found that the cement gives a nice sealant and lubricant, especially when it's cold. I've had a few fails in the past but never when I do it this way:)
dude... Showing people the Easiest plug job , isn't really Honest. Nails and Screws don't always go in Straight, and Most people don't even Notice it until air Lost or someone else Notice it. by then it's No telling what Damage done. Some tires, Some Nails do funny Things when they meet. I've Plugged Tires Many times before over my adult life (56 yrs old) and just Yesterday I saw that my Wife , Once again picked up a Roofing Nail on her 4Runner (Stock Factory Tires, good Life on treads) how long it's been there... Who knows, but the Head was barely there. I removed the Nail and Gotdamnit, the Hole was not directly Inline with where the Nail was. try and Try I Might, the Hole Could Not Be found. So I had to go the Long Route and Break the Bead and Patch the Hole from the inside (which is the Better way to be Honest). Those F'ed Up Jobs are the Ones You guys don't Inform people of and They end Up getting into Trouble. I know how to Turn a Wrench so it's Just a " Now ain't this Some Bull$#it" Job instead of a Easy one. But for Those that aren't Mechanically Inclined, You should tell them It Isn't Always that Easy. UPDATE: The Tire I wrote about, turns out to be A total $#it Show. The Roofing Nail that was in, went In, in A Weird Way to The Point of Causing this Issue. I took it in to be Patched. The Patch was Done. The Tire Showed No Leaks and Held The Same Pressure Reading 24hrs Later ( this Was done At my most Trust Shop). They Said... "Jeff, we Can't find what's wrong with this Tire or the Patch job that you had done, and It's holding Air. " I said, " that Exactly what happened before..... Until you Put weight on It, Then The Odd Puncture leaks Like Crazy." and Sure Enough,,, Once Weight was on the Tire... It Leaked from The Same original Puncture. Not All Tire Punctures, Even in the Most Perfect Spot for Repair, Is Going to Be A "Easy" fix.

Very clearly explained man!
Glad to hear that!
Good video 👍
Can i still patch a tire without air? My bike tire has no air anymore and i would like to try this one and ill gonna pull it over in tire repair shop.
Honest question .. what if my tire is already flat to the ground having so much trouble plugging it because I think it’s too flat
Yeah, it's easier to put the plug in when there is air in the tire.
People always dismiss these..I have never had a plug like this fail. And I've done enough to say they're legit.
Every plug ive had has starter leaking air eventually, never completely fail though. I guess driving style is a big factor i do alot of spirted driving so now i stick to just patches
How long will it last though?
Lol In the perfect world
Honestly as a mechanic why do you put rubber cement if the strip is galvanizing?
I wonder the same thing. Just following the instructions on the packaging.

You need to go to a tire shop and get an internal patch.
No they will just plug the tire but if you choose a patch then that's your choice.

Can I leave my tire on ?
Yup!
Absolutely, if it’s able to be reached.
