Reading through a tyre repairing post and I'll share a tip with you that might help.
When trying to buff the internal ribs off of a tyre wall to stick a patch too, I carry an old 12v or similarbattery drill that the rechargeable battery has died. I have removed the old battery and attached a couple of leads to it with aligator clips that connects to your battery. With a wire front facing wheel, I can buff those ribs off with little effort so that the patch readily sticks to the tyre wall. Just a note of warning, if your drill is 9v or less, don't overwork the motor or you may burn it out.
Be interested to hear of other tips too.
