I am after the glue one uses with "mushroom" plugs.
Went around to Rema Tip Top here in Brissie but the buggers had moved. The last tube I bought off them got holed in the tool kit and crap leaked out everywhere.
There must be a few different types of glues used with tyre repairs because when I bought the original batch of supplies they gave me two tubes with instructions that one was for patches on tubes and the other for patches on the inside of the tyre itself.
Q - Is the stuff they sell in Super Cheap as "tyre cement" such a product? Repco perhaps? Maybe Fourbys (or one of the other tyre places)?
Cheers from the Moose.

I'd be going to a tyre shop to make sure you buy the right stuff. From memory, the blue Rema Special cement is the stuff for the mushroom patches. The parts shops usually don't stock it.
