Anyone else experience this? It sounds like it works for all of you, but this guy works at one of the most reputable bike shops in Austin, so it seems like he would know what he's talking about...
Baloney!
I've been patching bicycle tubes for 40 years with zero such failures but I've never used glueless patches. I stick in a different tube while I'm on the road and save the old tube to patch when I get home. I used to save up a half dozen or so tubes and patch them all at one time on a rainy Saturday afternoon.
