FAQs

How many patches are included in the kit?

The kit contains six self-adhesive patches.

Does the kit come with instructions?

Yes, the kit includes instructions on the packaging.

Can I use this kit for tubeless tires?

No, this kit is specifically designed for repairing inner tubes, not tubeless tires.

Is the sandpaper reusable?

The sandpaper is designed for single use. Replace the sandpaper when it is worn.

How long will the patches last?

The durability of the patch depends on several factors, including the size and location of the puncture, and the road conditions. Properly applied patches should last the life of the inner tube.

Can I use the patches on a wet tube?

It is best to apply the patch to a dry tube for optimal adhesion. If the tube is wet, try to dry it as much as possible before applying the patch.

What if I get a puncture that is too big for the patch?

The patches are designed for small punctures. For larger punctures, it is recommended to replace the inner tube.

How should I store the repair kit?

Store the repair kit in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Patch is not sealing properly.

Ensure the tube surface is clean and roughened sufficiently with the sandpaper. Apply firm pressure to the patch for a few seconds to ensure a proper seal. Check for leaks after inflation.

Patch peeling off after application.

Make sure the tube is completely dry and free of debris before applying the patch. Apply the patch immediately after preparing the tube surface. Ensure that the edges of the patch are firmly adhered.

Puncture reoccurs after patching.

The original puncture may not have been completely sealed. Check for any air leaks around the patch. A second patch may be needed. Consider replacing the inner tube if the puncture is too large or the tube is damaged.
