[MENTION=21724]cyccommute[/MENTION] points out that the glue in the Rema patch kit is best. I agree, though I haven’t been able to find that cement in a can, so I use the car stuff from the auto parts store. It’s about 95% as good at holding the patches long-term. That’s just one person’s experience, and yours may differ.
I agree that Rema patches are best, and they really don’t cost much more than the no-names, so stock up on them. Buying them in bulk is extremely cheap.
