That’s just one person’s experience, and yours may differ.
This stuff? https://www.amazon.com/Rema-Tip-Top-.../dp/B006P3C92S Found it on Universal Cycles, too, if you don't want to give money to Bezos.

If I patched tubes by the hundreds, I'd probably invest in a can. But given how many tubes that can be patched at a time with just the little 3-gram tubes of glue, I haven't bothered. I've got one of those Rema "Touring" patch kits with the 5-gram tube and I have no idea what I'd do with all that once I opened it.
