HOW TO USE:

1. Locate the Puncture: Carefully inspect the tire to find the object that caused the puncture.
2. Remove the Object: Using pliers or suitable tools, carefully remove the nail, screw, or other object from the tire.
3. Prepare the Hole (Reaming): Take the rasp T-handle tool and insert it into the puncture hole. Move it in and out, reaming the hole to clean and enlarge it slightly. This prepares the hole for the plug.
4. Load the Plug: Thread one of the black 4-inch repair plugs halfway through the eye of the insert T-handle tool.
5. Apply Rubber Cement (if using patches): If using a patch, clean the area around the puncture thoroughly with the metal buffer. Apply a thin layer of rubber cement to the cleaned area.
6. Insert the Plug: Apply a small amount of rubber cement to the repair plug. With firm and steady pressure, push the insert T-handle tool with the plug into the prepared hole until about half an inch of the plug remains outside the tire.
7. Remove the Tool: Twist the insert T-handle tool a quarter turn and then pull it straight out, leaving the plug securely in place.
8. Trim Excess Plug: Once the plug is inserted, trim any excess plug material flush with the tire tread using a utility knife.
9. Apply Patch (if needed): If using a patch, carefully peel off the backing and apply the patch centered over the puncture (after the plug is inserted or for smaller non-plug punctures). Press firmly from the center outwards to remove any air bubbles.
10. Inflate and Check: Inflate the tire to the recommended PSI using the included tire gauge. Spray soapy water over the repaired area to check for any air leaks. If no bubbles appear, the repair is successful.
