How Long Does It Take for Small Bubbles to Disappear After Tire Repair?
1 Answers
The phenomenon of small bubbles appearing after a tire repair may persist for up to two days and will not affect the tire pressure. Below is an introduction to the classification of car tire repair methods: 1. Traditional Plug Method (External Repair): The principle involves using a sharp tool like an awl to enlarge the puncture hole, then inserting a rubber strip coated with adhesive into the hole. This method is simple, low-cost, and quick, requiring no separation of the tire from the rim or wheel balancing. However, enlarging the hole with an awl increases the damaged area, which may lead to air leakage. 2. Patch Repair Method (Internal Repair): This involves separating the tire from the rim, sanding the damaged area inside the tire to ensure better adhesion of the glue, cleaning the sanded debris, applying special tire repair adhesive to the damaged area and its surroundings, firmly pressing the repair patch onto the damaged area, and then applying another layer of adhesive to complete the repair. 3. Mushroom Plug Repair (Internal Repair): The mushroom plug method is currently considered an internal repair technique. It requires separating the tire from the rim, and wheel balancing is necessary after the repair. The difference between the mushroom plug and the patch method is that the mushroom plug effectively fills the gaps in the puncture hole, preventing further damage to the affected area.
