    Can anyone assist as to where I can buy burn on patches ?
    Having used my last one a week ago I get the feeling as I hunt around that
    these have become a museum piece.
    I have the brass clamp but no more patches.

    Sounds like you are going to have to cruise all the hardware and auto
    places.

    I stopped buying them when I moved to the mtb 13 years ago and my
    remaining stock seems to have crystalised (last used one 12 months ago).

    Do they work on modern tubes? I stopped using vulcanising
    patches in the 70's because they wouldn't adhere to the tubes in
    use then.

    I use the currently available patches which use an adhesive in a tube and
    they seem to be quite successful. Apart from having the brass clamp, what
    advantages to the vulcanising patches give you?

  5. That's what I'm finding as I look around Shepparton, so it's onto the glue !
