After Thoughts about the Video: I have put brand new valve stems on $50 tubes, patched tubes, repaired $1400 worth of rubber tracks, saved a $200 tire in this video, repaired a car tire on a holiday weekend just so it could be limped home and countless ATV tires now. I have pressure tested up to 45psi and 65mph. I would guesstimate in the past year I've saved over $3000 vs buying new tires for me/friends/family. Total cost to get set up should be sub $200, with each repair costing maybe 50cents in material(cushion gum). That just so happens to coincide with the price of a single new tire, so it pays for itself after 1 repair. It takes around 30minutes for me to demount, buff, sew and apply new cushion gum. Then an hour to cook and for the chemical reaction with heat and pressure to turn chewing gum consistency rubber into a tire(gotta love chemistry). Repairs like this should only be done on Off Road, ATV, UTV and Tractor tires. NOT all tires can be repaired especially if this is your first time repairing one. I practiced on and old tire for weeks before getting comfortable. I spoke to professionals in this trade over a 2year span perfecting this skill. A 1inch gash is no problem at all. A 2" inch gash is easily doable, a 3" gets significantly more difficult and so on. NOT ALL TIRES ARE REPAIRABLE especially car tires as they are too thin to take almost any repair. Don't believe all the FEAR-MONGERING around tires, but also don't do something outside your abilities.


TECHNICAL DATA:
Trouble shooting:
Rubber not set up after heating- run the head cycle longer
Bulge repair- Sewing not sufficient or repair too large to support damage

Vulcanizing Glue
Ethanol Free Gasoline 50-50 with Cushion gum(2 days to dilute). You can thin it out with more gas or thicken with more cushion gum. DO NOT used store bought "vulcanizing fluid" as it is meant for COLD repairs. You can find HOT vulcanizing fluid but it is around $30 https://amzn.to/3AZGYF6

Temperature
300F for 60 minutes with a 1/4-3/8" thick sidewall. Longer time is required for thicker repairs.
Tubes: 10 minutes

Inside Patch:
I like to make my own with the string/cord like I show but you could apply a large reinforced sidewall patch after. I may consider doing both if I had a huge gash(3"plus) and need all the help I can get.
