If I've patched a tube 10 times I feel I've gotten my money's worth from it and its time for a new tube.
The Kenda Kwest's worked well enough, but I always found them difficult to mount straight the first time so that they sat on the rim properly. After they were broken in, then they were okay in temps up to about 107 F. Above 107 F, I had to life the bike off the road when I stopped to keep the rubber from getting too hot and softening and the tube blowing out of the sidewalls.
