for those who are criticizing this man for the first nail shown and the string patch. pay attention.. he did not say it was unable to be repaired. it is just not wise to repair it if you want to keep warranty on your tires. as he said more than once. if the injury of the tire is outside the belt package it does not fall under warranty
+brett pingel This is true, however the belt package of tires doesn't always end at the rib that hits the shoulder block. What you can do is removing the offending item and then use your awl/ probe to check and see if you can feel the belt package on each side of the hole. If you can, then 9 times out of ten your tire will be in a repairable area. One thing to note though is that if the placement of the patch on the inside of the tire is too close to the inner sidewall it will be unwise to try and repair it even if you're still within the belt package because of how much the tire will flex while on the road, potentially causing the patch to work itself loose.
@@Jokerseven77 Yes sir you are correct , u have to watch out for the flex point when your getting close to the edge of the tire . once the repair is done on the flat contact surface of the tire it should work, but going to close to the edge/side wall creates a big problem because as the tire rolls, it continuously flex's causing the seal/patch to fail! This is the reason why its good practice to come off about an inch from the edge on both side to make a safe repair!
Hey Frad Flintstone, this was a really good job, well done, one of the best I have seen. Flintstone do you remember that? So be careful, and tale care.......................BB
THIS IS FOLKS THE ONLY WAY I WILL EVER ACCEPT A TYRE REPAIR....THE PRESSURE OF THE AIR IN THE TYRE ALSO HOLDS THE PATCH IN POSITION.....THIS IS THE BEST EVER......GREAT VIDEO
So just to make sure I have this straight, if I get a nail out side of the belt and I repair that hole I have voided the warranty, but the warranty doesn’t cover nails in my tire so I have two choices, repair the nail hole voiding the warranty OR throw that tire away and buy Not one but FOUR new tires so the tread depth is the same on all four tires so as to not ruin the running gear on an all wheel drive car, that actually sounds like a great sales model!
Just plug it if it's not in the sidewall, you have to remember who's telling you NOT to plug them yourself, it's a guy in the business of trying to sell you tires! Hahaha I've been plugging tires for 30 years , and my Semitruck tires are extreme duty with 100 PSI of air in them, I've never had a problem!
@@delvictor7570 oh man, I've never ever ever had a problem, but you have to buy the" heavy duty "Tire plug kit, I bought it a place called Princess Auto, I'm not sure if you're familiar with them. The heavy duty kit has larger plugs and larger tools
@@brianvandorp25 no the problem with them is they dont create a problem seal and is doesn't allow you to properly inspect the tire there are story's of several million dollar law suits because shops put in string plugs and it caused blow outs later down the road because the lack of a proper sealing allowed the belts to rust
Fantastic video I Purchased the mighty system for myself and a small fleet of vehicles and I help manage at nonprofit. About 75% of the way there for the product I Purchased pay for itself. Great system. Great video.
I have looked at a number of videos on how to do a puncture repair and I think this is one of the best. The only thing that surprised me what that you did not vaccum out the tyre debris before applying the cement and patch. By leaving it in place you risk small particles moving onto to the repair area which could result in poor adhesion.
@@KidrahulPure..what are you baked?!.. read this guys comment again... now go back and watch the video, note when G-pa tells you to vacuum up the debris, now go back read your comment you left.. I really hope ya got if figured out ?

I guess it justifies paying 4X more money to fix a minor problem
old trucker actually all the time. People don’t pay attention to their tires or wait too long for a repair. Actually being in the industry daily you see it every single day. When people drive on low tires it creates a heat ring which compromises the integrity of the tire. These style of repairs are safer than a gummy plug or rope plug on passenger cars and trucks. Plus most tire shops such as discount tire repair tires for free.
The cost associated with repairing a passenger car tire correctly will vary based on a number of factors, but it is not unusual for this service to fall in the $20-$30 range. It is important to keep in mind that this service will not only include demounting, inspecting and repairing the tire, it would also include a rebalancing of the tire once it has been remounted to the rim. Some vehicles require TPMS service which would increase the cost of repair.
That pricing would make sense if it's an expensive large low profile $100 plus tyre, but there's no point spending that money to repair a more standard tyre size where an extra $5/$10 would buy you a brand new tyre??
Jeffro115 the issue with string repairs wasnt leaking it was that the tire was most often repaired without internal inspection meaning if the tire had any internal sidewall damage from being underinflated it wasn't at all noticed. This resulted in the direct deaths of some people due to a complete tire failure at high speed after the string repair was applied. This is why in many places the string repair is actually illegal.
Thanks for your comments. To speak to your question, IMFDB, the weight in question is less than 1/4 oz. If you can mount the tire to the same position it should not change the balance. It's a business call as to yes or no- many facilities use tire rebalancing as a profit service.
Good Instruction. Except It'd be helpful to know as a last step whether I should balance the tire after mounting.it. Do you think it's a good procedure to leave a witness mark on the tire and line that mark up after mounting it as a shortcut to balancing it? I'm thinking we shouldn't do that because the patch's weight might throw the balance off.
Greetings, I have knowledge of assembling and disassembling, repairing and balancing and alignment, where I can see the available works, thanks, I hope opinions and help
If you repair the injury with a mushroom plug just to drive to a Tire shop, so they can make a permanent repair, can they just use the two step method? And just prep the inside and patch? I don't carry a tire mounting apparatus in my trunk
This video is labeled as a Professional Tire Repair and is what is supposed to be done. The reason the criteria is held to tire manufacturer specific warranty criteria is a shop will be held liable if a repair end up in a tire failure or leak but worse an accident or loss of life. No shop wants that ever to happen and must protect his customer's safety. He isn't saying this to sell tires but is actually looking out for his customer's safety and how a tire repair is supposed to be done!
dont just run the stitcher back and forth one time as shown, go up and down, left and right, diagonally both ways too, and you stitch until that plastic on it almost comes off on its own. really work it in. And align the word radial inline with the tread, so 90 degree turn from how he put it on.
Curious, with this type of repair are you supposed to drive on it right away? Or is it best to let it sit and dry for a while? I know the kits are fast drying, but I'm assuming there is a curing time as well. I've always assumed best to take it easy on the way home after a repair and just park it until the next day. IDK, kind of a sciency question I suppose. haha
Very good question @Kraken. Following the process outlined in the video, cement is stippled into the buffed surface of the tire and allowed to dry prior to applying the rubber repair unit. After the repair unit is applied, a chemical reaction occurs known as vulcanization. Once the repair has been completed, the curing process may take up to 72 hours. However, the adhesion strength of the repair unit immediately after the repair, is strong enough for the tire to be put back in service, and driven under normal conditions.
how do you control the buffer? the buffer in my shop goes crazy fast. im left handed and i cant control it. when i land the thing it zip to the other side. i need to use 2 hands. and why do you scrap it if your going to buff it off?
I notice after patching and inflating the tire that there's a small bubble coming from the puncture every 10 seconds. Is that normal? Friend says its air pockets coming from inside the patch not outside.
Air bubbles should never be present. For air bubbles to be present the tire injury has not been sealed correctly or there is air trapped under the patch. The tire should not be used until the injury has been addressed and no air bubbles are present.
Sounds to me like you had a shity patch job done, next time just use tire plugs, it's way cheaper , and they work every bit as good at a quarter of the price, plus you don't have to go through the hassle of dismounting the tire from the rim
This outlined all the important elements of a proper tire repair. Anything less is a compromised solution, there is nothing wrong with compromised solution, it just means the reliability & durability suffered somewhat!
Pretty sure sidewall repairs are not safe and you should always replace the tire if the sidewall is punctured or significantly damaged. I'm no expert, I'm guessing the reason is that they're too thin, a repair will probably not have the structural integrity that a stock tire would, and the risk of a blowout is very high in that case. It's even more dangerous if the tire in question is one of the front tires, mid-driving the vehicle could immediately change lanes and cause a serious accident.
Hi, i love to this training video. My question is: what is grit number buffing wheel? I bought ASBC2 Buffing Disc, damaged to tires. Give me a answer, I'm happy. Thanks....
How about the fire at the end of fixing the tire. I did take it to tire shop, they did the same way, except at the end he put a fire for few second. As well, what fee is normally charged?
+Park Boulevard Heat should never be applied to the repair area when performing a tire repair. A proper and permanent repair consists of a chemical reaction that bonds the natural rubber of the inner liner to the rubber patch. This is known as vulcanization, a chemical process that converts natural rubber or related polymers into a more durable material via the addition of a sulfur accelerator. Additional heat, like fire, changes the molecular structure of the rubber surface and compromises its ability to properly seal the injury.

@Ralph Kenneth I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Well Maybe Ok but You just pulled all the adhesive from the center hole, So add a little adhesive to the patch so when you pull you have adhesive on the plug. Then do the repair per video.
have a patch and plug near the shoulder of a Y rated tire, is it still safe for top speed runs? Never leaked for a year and did not deform at turns. If it fails, will it be catastrophic or gradual?
lordoftheriffs79 Repairs made near the shoulder of any tire must still be contained within the belt package, which is generally limited to the center portion of the tire. Proper repairs made to a speed rated tire may impact the rating of the tire. In this case, the industry recommendation would be to contact the specific tire manufacturer to determine THEIR policy.
+lordoftheriffs79: Speed-rated tires are a manufacturer specific thing. Last guidance I saw in Police Fleet Manager magazine indicated that a V-rated tire, properly plugged and patched, was only rated to 85 MPH afterwards. At that time, there weren't many manufacturers in the police tires game.
How long does this take? I just had one of my tires patched at National Tire & Battery. They patched it, as opposed to plugging it. Took about an hour. They said it's guaranteed for the life of the tire.
A typical drill bit is not acceptable when preparing an injury channel. A typical drill bit would not cut a clean channel and could generate enough heat to permanently damage the tire. The carbide cutter is specially designed to cut a clean, smooth channel which will allow the repair stem to seal the hole, preventing dirt and moisture from entering the belt package. Using the carbide cutter also minimizes the amount of heat being generated, significantly reducing the chances of scorching the rubber and damaging the tire.
If you are referring to repair on run flat tires you need to consult with the Manufacturers Guidelines. Servicing of a run flat tire is based on manufacturer guidelines and they will vary.
Bead sealer should not be used to seal a tire patch, the product is a natural rubber compound that is designed to help with the sealing of a tire to the rim when the mating surface is pitted or rusted (a common condition in cold weather regions). Bead sealer conforms easily to uneven surfaces, filling in void areas, similar to a gasket. Bead sealer has poor air retention characteristics on its own and is not permanent. It can be easily removed from the sealing surface once the tire has been demounted. Liner sealer, on the other hand, is a synthetic rubber compound that has very good air retention characteristics. After installing the repair patch, liner sealer is used to replace the material that had been removed during the buffing process. Once dry, it functions the same as the inner liner of a tire, since during a tire repair, the layer of inner liner (synthetic rubber) is buffed away to prepare the tire surface.
Yes that would be fine. This video is extreme overkill and these methods are designed for maximum profit to the tire companies. I’ve fixed many nail holes with a string plug and never had a problem as long as they sealed.
Studies have been done by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) providing support for this form of repair. We recommend you going to www.RMA.org to review the information on tire repair.
Ese parche con ese cemento se sueldan el parche trae un químico por eso viene cubierto con una película plástica que se remueve al momento de aplicar el parche. Este reacciona con el cemento y se vulcaniza en frío al aplicar presión con la ruedita de asentar el parche y se soldada con pared de la llanta.
Extremely rare for tires to blow out these days. They almost always have catastrophic damage or be have to be completely worn out for them to be actually dangerous.
Exactly! I've been plugging tires on my Semi trucks for 30 years! I've never ever ever had an issue. One time I managed to pick up socket wrench extension in one of my drive tires, I put 4 plugs just in that one hole, aired it up to 100 PSI (just to cripple the rig home), I ran that tire for 1.5 years!without an issue 👍
XgilbertXx You should never use heat when preparing the tire surface for a repair. In the process of performing a professional tire repair, the natural rubber surface of a tire patch is bonded to the natural rubber surface of the tire, where the cement is used as a catalyst to help in the chemical bonding process. Igniting the cement (burning) will effect the chemistry of the cement and contaminate the surface area of the tire being repaired.
Heres the expert tip! NEVER use a greasy tire marker to identify injury location inside,(if your working on it you should see it anyway...)this will induce a contaminent you will have a hard time removing even with a good solvent wich will only spread it around leading to eventual separation of the substrate.(on the seconth video, the copper brush clearly spread some of that grease marker...) Otherwise good repair!
He forgot to tell you to write the mileage, make ,model and position of tire on the car on the back of the shops biss. Card and put yhe card in the tire before mounting on rim. Its called honesty.

A typical drill bit is not acceptable when preparing an injury channel. A typical drill bit would not cut a clean channel and could generate enough heat to permanently damage the tire.
The carbide cutter is specially designed to cut a clean, smooth channel which will allow the repair stem to seal the hole, preventing dirt and moisture from entering the belt package. Using the carbide cutter also minimizes the amount of heat being generated, significantly reducing the chances of scorching the rubber and damaging the tire.
how to get the tool and how much it cost?
every three months I change my BMW runflat Goodyear tire, did you have an ida for runflat tire
If you are referring to repair on run flat tires you need to consult with the Manufacturers Guidelines. Servicing of a run flat tire is based on manufacturer guidelines and they will vary.
Where I work, we use bead seal to seal the patch. Is that correct?
Bead sealer should not be used to seal a tire patch, the product is a natural rubber compound that is designed to help with the sealing of a tire to the rim when the mating surface is pitted or rusted (a common condition in cold weather regions).
Bead sealer conforms easily to uneven surfaces, filling in void areas, similar to a gasket. Bead sealer has poor air retention characteristics on its own and is not permanent. It can be easily removed from the sealing surface once the tire has been demounted.
Liner sealer, on the other hand, is a synthetic rubber compound that has very good air retention characteristics. After installing the repair patch, liner sealer is used to replace the material that had been removed during the buffing process. Once dry, it functions the same as the inner liner of a tire, since during a tire repair, the layer of inner liner (synthetic rubber) is buffed away to prepare the tire surface.
Yes that would be fine. This video is extreme overkill and these methods are designed for maximum profit to the tire companies. I’ve fixed many nail holes with a string plug and never had a problem as long as they sealed.
How much does that machine is put rubber?
Very good information. Thanks for posting.
Where can i buy a hotpatch tire machine
Many thanks for this video. I was about to patch my car's tire by myself and thanks to this professional video, I saved my life by not doing it.

I like the end. if you cant do it right. dont do it. wise words right there
+Jacob W It's so true. Almost always fails eventually, if you take shortcuts. Sometimes a lot sooner, than later!
Jacob W
How would you know that you can't do it right without first trying to do it? WTF ! lol
That is why I don't do anything!
Good morning from Baku Azerbaijan: Boys I am looking for machine which produce tire repair string any support appreciated
Proper repair.Well done
good video, Thank you sir.
any proof that this works better than the old way???? or lasts longer????
Studies have been done by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) providing support for this form of repair. We recommend you going to www.RMA.org to review the information on tire repair.
Mighty Auto Parts cool, thank you good sir,,,,,,,
Awesome, thanks for the really great video.
me I called them plug duo patchplug like I was doing in Canadian tire they are the best it will never fail good work budy
Nice explanation
Where can I buy a kit ?
this reminds me of dental work...
im feeling a lot of past trauma...
en este caso no hay vulcanizado
Ese parche con ese cemento se sueldan el parche trae un químico por eso viene cubierto con una película plástica que se remueve al momento de aplicar el parche. Este reacciona con el cemento y se vulcaniza en frío al aplicar presión con la ruedita de asentar el parche y se soldada con pared de la llanta.
Very informative and clear - thanks!
Make sure you fix that INJURY! Far too much trouble - just use a DIY plug. Leave the tire on the rim.
Roger Tycholiz Yeah... don't inspect the inside and only find out about the internal sidewall damage when it kills someone, good idea.
Extremely rare for tires to blow out these days. They almost always have catastrophic damage or be have to be completely worn out for them to be actually dangerous.
Exactly! I've been plugging tires on my Semi trucks for 30 years! I've never ever ever had an issue. One time I managed to pick up socket wrench extension in one of my drive tires, I put 4 plugs just in that one hole, aired it up to 100 PSI (just to cripple the rig home), I ran that tire for 1.5 years!without an issue 👍
best video tire repair ever see
if you want to spend 30 dollars on this that's fine without a road hazard that is the average price
Rix Slade Costco is $10.99 lol .
very good vid.
good video
Good stuff SIR!
burning the sement will give the patch a way better stick on there than just waiting for it to dry .
XgilbertXx You should never use heat when preparing the tire surface for a repair. In the process of performing a professional tire repair, the natural rubber surface of a tire patch is bonded to the natural rubber surface of the tire, where the cement is used as a catalyst to help in the chemical bonding process. Igniting the cement (burning) will effect the chemistry of the cement and contaminate the surface area of the tire being repaired.
Heres the expert tip! NEVER use a greasy tire marker to identify injury location inside,(if your working on it you should see it anyway...)this will induce a contaminent you will have a hard time removing even with a good solvent wich will only spread it around leading to eventual separation of the substrate.(on the seconth video, the copper brush clearly spread some of that grease marker...) Otherwise good repair!
good job
He forgot to tell you to write the mileage, make ,model and position of tire on the car on the back of the shops biss. Card and put yhe card in the tire before mounting on rim. Its called honesty.
this vid is just awesome!
wow so basically only 1/3 of the tread can be patched. If you are going to run over a nail, let it be in that 1/3 area.
He's over doing it but if the nail is on the side of the tire then no it cant be repaired
Wonderful
how
Very helpful, Thank you!
thank you
Safety first! Disconnect the low speed buffer when changing out the cutter to the buffer to prevent accidents.
Excellent presentation
I was just curious on how my tire puncture was repaired, I wouldn't dare do anything on my own. Great video :)
Thanks! 👍
I wondered what had happened to Captain Kangaroo
