If you want as many patches per tube, you just need to live where the goatheads grow. You get good at it with all the practice.
you cant rush the drying, it has to be dry
maybe you are putting waaaay too much glue on, and it takes forever to dry
its a pretty straightforward procedure, and no need to say that maybe youre not a patcher, just get the steps right. Once you get it right, its a skill like any other that you'll remember for the rest of your life
You can’t let it dry too long. I’ve forgotten about tubes in the middle of a patch job and have gone weeks before I applied the patch. It still worked.
