Black Hole Patch Review and Instructions
#21
I forgot to update here, I ordered mine 3/22 (friday), it arrived in a nice little envelope (brown) on 3/25 (monday).
I'm installing it tomorrow I think, and I shall post up how it goes and will update later on the durability of it as well.

The Tear Aid I used is more like duct tape than a fabric patch. It squeaked when rubbing against the metal frame, but did stay attached for over a year but is visibly peeling. I'm replacing it with fabric patches and vinyl glue, and the glue seems to work much better in keeping the patches in place. I don't know how well a peel-and-stick adhesive would work since there's less of the "locking effect" that you'd get with a liquid adhesive that can work itself into the two bonding surfaces.

I like to recommend this patch also. I ordered one kit and I was very please with material. And it seem to stick to the top pretty good. I like how the material almost blend into the top and you can almost can't see it. I like it so much and order another kit. Customer service is awsome also. Answer all your questions in a timely manner.

Just ordered mine! This might be a dumb question, but is it better to apply the patch from inside or outside? or both?

you can put patches inside if the tears are small, for large tires i try to do both inside and outside. i also applied black silicone adhesive to them for good measure (cause i put the top up&down ALOT, like 3-5 times a day) and so far they've stayed on with no problems. the ones outside fade really bad though
