Guys
Got a puncture last night and was recovered home by the AA. When I checked the tyre this AM, I found a semicircular piece of metal that had penetrated into the centre of the tyre tread by about 5mm.
2/3 of a tin of tyre gunge seems to have done the job but I have a long trip to Cornwall tomorrow and then up to Chester the following week. Not having used this stuff before, my question is whether this stuff is safe to use as a permanent fix or (as it says on the tin) should I get a proper repair done asap. Anyone got any real time exerience with this stuff in the long-term? Sod's Law says that the tyre has all of 150 miles on it.
