Lesson learned. It might also cost me the whole tire.
Anyway, hope you fellow tsikoters learned something too... para di masayang P400.00 ko.![]()

to the ts, thanks for the heads up, 500 might be a stiff price but look where they are now... that 500 php wont last long. di nila ikayayaman yun furthermore wala ng babalik na customer sa kanila.
regarding cold patch- it's actually not as durable as the old process, sabi ng mga expert for temporary lang daw talaga yun... anyway once na nabutas and na patch na yung tires talagang you cannot return them into 100 percent perfect condition
better if you buy one of those tire that doesn't need to be vulcanized even if it is punctured, forgot the name of the tires it was advertise here a few years back
buti pa yung suki kong vulcanizing shop 70php kahit patch or sunog pa yan.
Actually it won't weaken the steel belts per-se. The heat would however loosen the rubber mould in and around the area where the heat was applied. The next scenario that would happen is that a buldge would appear, then since the rubber compound and the steel belts are no longer sticking together, the steel belts would fray (loosen/mapuputol) ... pag yan nangyari, sabog ang gulong.
Yung tinitusok na parang may makapal na tootsie roll, yan ang nakakaputol ng steel belts. Avoid that type of tyre repair as well.
As much as possible, use cold patch vulcanizing. Walang luto, walang tusok.![]()

yung sa S&R.. imported yung gamit nilang patch eh.. 2x na ako nagpa vulcanize don.. ok naman walang singaw.. photocopy nyo lang yung receipt nyo nang gulong kasi after a few months nabubura yung thermal paper.. titingnan lang nila yung receipt kung don binili yung tires.. then free vulcanizing na.. any branch to pala.. kahit sa ibang branch binili.. and yes.. compared sa ibang bilihan nang tires.. hindi naman mahal sa S&R.. libre din balancing and yung mga tingga wala nang bayad..
