Can this be used for tube repairs?

Troubleshooting
Patch failing to adhere to the tyre
Ensure the tyre surface was properly buffed to remove surface oils and that the cement was allowed to become 'tacky' before applying the patch.

Always store the cement in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed to prevent the solvent from evaporating. Compatibility should be confirmed by checking that your chosen tyre patches are designed for chemical vulcanisation. Users must consult the provided safety data sheet (SDS) before handling to understand the specific hazards associated with this product, including the need for respiratory protection or adequate ventilation.
