I have a box of 100 Rema patches and a jar of Slime rubber cement, I now see I bought in 2015.

Like others, I don't patch on the road but carry 1-2 spare tubes and some glueless patches and duct tape for emergency use on those disaster days with multiple flats. If you use the gluless patch, carry a hand pump as it's very much possible you will need to stop every 2-3 miles to pump the tire back up. I don't use the little portable glued patch kits anymore as in my experience, the little tube of glue dries up before you actually need it.
