Rema 8oz Patch Glue

Do yourself a favor, and buy these patches with the 8oz rema cold vulcanizing fluid. Yes, it'll cost you about $30...which is about ten tubes, but if you ride frequently you'll realize that eventually this will save you a lot of money in the long wrong.The rema patch and the vulcanizing fluid create an unbreakable permanent bond that you'll never have to worry about unhitching. If you try and peel away the patch it will literally rip off the old inner tube with it. It's that strong and permanent, and it saves you $4-5 every time you do a patch. For cyclists that ride regularly, I can see this saving them a considerable amount of money.MY PATCHING METHOD:The key is to sand the area to be patched thoroughly. Make sure there aren't any protruding lines from the inner tube...if there are...sand them down so that the area to be patched is perfectly flat. At this point make sure you've taken all the air out of the tube. Once you do that, apply the vulcanizing fluid making sure that the radius of the applied fluid is larger than the patch. Apply the patch immediately afterward(peeling away the clear plastic with the black/orange patch on it) and press down and flatten the patch with your fingers. Make sure the patch is positioned as centered as possible over the puncture. Lay the inner tube flat on the ground or on a flat surface area. Put a piece of cardboard over the patched area, and then put something heavy on the cardboard like a 20 pound weight or a stack of heavy books, so that there is constant pressure on the patch to the inner tube as it dries. Let it cure overnight or 8 hours and the tube will be fixed permanently.This is just my method and it has never failed me. If your constantly getting multiple punctures on each ride you might want to try kevlar tires. I use tires with kevlar, but still get punctures...so kevlar tires with these...and 4 inner tubes in the rotation has been lasting me for months without buying a new tube, and I average about 60-70 miles a week(road riding). I've patched well over 20 inner tubes...which translates to about $80 worth of inner tubes if I had to buy a new inner tube each time I punctured.FYI: The best way to spot punctures is to fill a sink with water, and rotate the inflated tube in the water watching closely for air bubbles.

Much better than the little tubes. I take spares for my ride days and leave the patching activities to home comfort and heat and clamping assistance. This product could only be better by improving the brush material and size. Hard to say why none has designed a smaller, softer brush for applying cement to a 1" patch or smaller.

This glue works really well, and it's a much better value than those little tubes that come with patch kits. I bought some bulk patches and I never have to worry about this glue drying up. Seems like I have had this can for a few years now, and it's been good for over 80+ patch jobs.

The Rema Patch Glue works as advertised and is the way to go when patching bicycle inner tubes. However, I strongly suggest buying a bunch of the 5 gram tubes. Unless you are making multiple patches every day, the can dries out too soon.

Had the same bottle for like 2 years. Patched many tubes in this time. Hasn’t dried out which is nice. It says on the bottle it’s not for consumer use, only professionals. Funny because it’s exactly like what you get in the little tubes in repair kits and it’s clearly here for sale to anybody.

The first thing you run out of with a patch kit is the darn glue. This is a very good replacement, allowing you to use up all the patches you have sitting in kits with dried-out or empty glue tubes.

Industrial-size canister of bicycle tube patch glue. Patches stick to it great.(The only question is, who do I will the remainder to when I'm done with it?)

Does the job as advertised ! Can't ask for any more than that.
