Once the camera is removed from the wheel, it is necessary to determine the fault location; to do this, inflate the removed camera and visually locate the puncture. If it immediately fails, then you can immerse it in a suitable container; the escaping air bubbles indicate defective area. In order not to lose the puncture, plug it match. Conventionally, the curing process can be divided into 2 types.

Cold



You will need a special kit for attaching patches, fine emery paper, any degreasing liquid and rolling (roller) to press the glued patch. Position the camera on a flat, comfortable place, take a match and determine the location of the future patches to pick her up from a set of size (overlap damage from all sides should be about 1.5 cm). Take fine sandpaper and carefully apply on the area around the damage. Now clean whitened place with a solvent, wait for it to dry, and apply a thin layer of glue.


Until it dries (3-4 minutes), prepare the patch, removing it from thin layer of the protective film. Now apply the patch on the damaged area, being careful not to touch the hands of the puncture site and secure it by pressing the center and edges. In conclusion, roll the patch with a suitable knurling roller. Such repairs are carried out with quality materials that will allow the scooter to travel thousands of kilometers. However, there are more reliable repair method to successfully glue the camera not only mopeds but also trucks.

Hot



This is a more reliable method, requiring the availability of raw rubber and vulcanizer, which can be electric or marching (running on gasoline). Crude rubber similar to normal, but the touch is more soft, supple. Once you've identified the place on the camera, Stripping and abasiri it, take any piece of raw rubber and put in gasoline for 3-5 minutes. When the patch will swell up and apply it to the puncture site and cover with paper so that the camera does not touch the soles vulcanizer.

The resulting "hamburger" hold in already-heated device. The cure time of the camera for a scooter is about 5 minutes. More precisely, can be calculated according to the formula, by multiplying the thickness of the camera in millimeters in figure 7. When the time is up, let cool vulcanizer, then remove paper and sprinkle the patch with talc to the tire from sticking to the camera. It remains only to check the quality of curing, inflate the chamber to the elastic state and lowering it into the water. The lack of bubbles suggests that everything is done correctly.
