Quentin Spencer: I've been buying Rema patch kits since long before Amazon existed, probably 35 years. I don't know how many I've bought, but Amazon tells me I've bought several since I started buying them here. I've tried other brands from time to time. Nobody else's patches are as consistently reliable. I don't even know what the competing products cost anymore, and I don't care whether they are cheaper. If I'm paying a dollar or two more, it's worth it to reduce the chance that I have to take a tire back off to deal with a patch that didn't stick properly.

Sean: Make sure you sand rubber area well to prep for good adhesion. I put a clamp over patch for glue to dry for at least an hour. If flat occurs on the road I carry a spare tube.

Fatty: Très déçu, il ne colle pas assez sur la chambre à air. J'ai dû recommencer 3 fois avant d'arriver à un état satisfaisant.

Joe Bob: "THE" patch kit for decades now.

Hard to write a review on such a well-known classic. So I'll just add to the admittedly meager instructions.

1) find the puncture in your tube, usually by inflating and either feeling for escaping air, or listening, or dunking under water (the tube - not you).
2) examine the inside of the tire to be sure whatever punctured your tube isn't still there. Remove anything pointy sticking through the tire.
3) scuff the tube in an area around the puncture slightly larger than the patch you'll be using with the included abrasive square (or a spare piece of sandpaper). This is to get rid of the molding release stuff and any talcum on the surface of the tube.
4) apply a thin layer of cement around the puncture, again, slightly larger than the patch you'll be using
5) Wait - but you don't have to wait too long, just until the cement is no longer shiny. Once the cement is dry and dull you can...
6) Peel the foil backing off the patch and apply.
7) Push down quite FIRMLY all over the patch - I use the rounded end of my pump with the tube lying on a hard flat surface. This is important. It's called stitching and failure to do this...

CPAChicago: This is pretty much the gold standard of bicycle tube patching. I picked up 8 boxes to minimize the shipping charge per box (8 boxes had the same charge as 1 box). I like the smaller tubes of glue so that you can sit down and patch 7 tubes all at once and not have to worry about the freshness of the glue.

If you have been frustrated in the past with patches that get funky over time in your bike bag, or if your patches do not always hold, you will probably like these patches. The box is rigid plastic that holds up well in a bike bag.

The patches themselves are thick enough for most of the area to keep the bond with the tire and they taper down to a very thin scalloped edge that fuzed very nicely with the tube and is unlikely to get pulled up by anything (except maybe your own effort to remove the thin clear plastic backing. I have started to just leave that on the patch. It does not seem to do any harm doing so. But if you must remove it, first try one corner carefully, and if it looks like it is pulling on the patch, just try a different corner) I have found that thicker edges tend to catch and break loose from the tire.

They stretch nicely with the tire. Much...
