    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

    • @Jokerseven77
      @Jokerseven77 8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      +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.

    • @dwayneevans683
      @dwayneevans683 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@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!

      Oh geez, when's the last time you saw a catastrophic failure from a nail going into a tire? Well in my mind, a plug is no different than a nail except for the fact that air can no longer escape, and a plug is damn near impossible to pull out once it's inserted , this sounds a lot like scare tactics! 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.

    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!

      @bremCZ 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

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!

    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

    • @mightyautoparts
      @mightyautoparts  7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      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.

    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.

    Thank you. I was hoping you'd do the sidewall.

    • @nomad_1997
      @nomad_1997 ปีที่แล้ว

      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.

    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.

      I work at discount tire and shop time should be like 15-30 minutes that does not account for waiting time

  • @parkboulevard4167

    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.

    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!

    every three months I change my BMW runflat Goodyear tire, did you have an ida for runflat tire

    • @mightyautoparts

      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.

    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.

  • @charlottechurch6327

    can I use a drill bit to ream the hole out

    • @mightyautoparts
      @mightyautoparts  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      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.

    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.

      What’s the answer?

  • @michaelrios5194
    @michaelrios5194 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Where I work, we use bead seal to seal the patch. Is that correct?

    • @mightyautoparts
      @mightyautoparts  9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      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.

    • @delvictor7570
      @delvictor7570 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      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.
