The Flypaper came apart when the tube was inflated... Perhaps it was just old and I need to refresh my kit but first I'd like to know what ACTUALLY works.
To clarify, by "seem to work well", I meant that I have used the Park patches successfully, twice. I've ridden on each several times, and they seem as effective as butyl patches on butyl tubes, but I've only used them for a few months.
