Oddly one of the hardest things to do when installing a patch is to let the glue dry before applying the patch. Really it is only about 5 min but they appear to be very long minuets when your waiting. I carry just a generic ChiCom patch kit with the little 5-7 gram tubes. But I also carry an unopened little tube of Generic Super Glue as a back up. Using a dab of super glue works well for a patch but it is not flexible and therefore not a reliable patch.

Some times my generic ChiCom patches get kinda dry. No biggy, I just put vulcanizing cement on them and they soften up.

Again... Remember to let that glue dry before application. Often its a hard task...
