    Hello all,

    as I am going to be commuting a fair distance and regularly, I thought for frugality (if that is a word) it would be advisable to repair some of my tubes now and then.

    I have used the Tesco value repair kit to some success, but recently can;t get them to bond properly - admittedly I always seem to forget to let the glue go off, but then I clamp the thing down onto the tube overnight, and stil get no joy - they just seem to inflexible and do not want to bond to the surface - this is after sanding the crap out of it.

    So if I am to initiate repairs regularly, can anyone recommend a kit that works, and secondly a sound how to guide that would enable me to confident in a repair?

    Cheers

    I think you've answered your own question, if you don't leave the rubber solution/glue to dry for at least 30 seconds before sticking the patch on...no need to apply extreme pressure or keep pressure on it all night or whatever
