Is External Tire Patching Safe?

[LukasDella]

Tire external patching is not very safe. Here is a detailed introduction to tire repair methods: 1. Plugging with a rubber strip: Drill a hole of about 6mm, then insert a rubber strip coated with glue into the hole. This method is only for emergency use and cannot be used long-term, as it is prone to air leakage. 2. Patch repair: This method is relatively stable and reliable, but it needs to be done at a professional tire repair shop. 3. Hot patch: This adds a heating step to the patch repair method and is generally used for large trucks. 4. Mushroom plug: Under normal circumstances, this method provides the best air tightness and repair effect after patching, and it is also the most durable.
