I have a small nick on my tire, and just a small piece of rubber is hanging out. There is no air coming out and the cords or anything is not showing, don't be alarmed. I've driven around with this car and nothing has happened. It just cut the top portion of the tire, not so deep where any major damage is visible. I'm afraid to just rip the little piece off. Can I use rubber cement glue to glue the little piece back together?Once again, there is no major damage to the tire. No air coming out or cords showing. Just a slight tear.
Correct. Can we please no longer make a bunch of assumptions? Try slightly curiosity before y'all believe you know what is going on on. I am within the equal situation. This hose for my auto shouldn't be on hand new, and it have got to be patched, or I need to scour the continent for junk-yards with the hose still in the automobile. Thanks hyper-dog. Good suggestions. I'm additionally wondering if A bicycle-tire variety patch package would work. The oven scan is as a rule a excellent one.
Take it to a tire shop to be sure.
You can, but rubber cement glue wasn't made for that purpose. You're only using it for cosmetic reasons, so it'll be ok. However I would like to say that because there's no major damage to the tire that everything is safe. If it's a very small nick ( less tha 1/4 in in length) I'd say your ok. But if it's larger than that, i'd say to take it to a mechanic. Tires don't bear the same weight load all the time while driving, so going around corners, making small turns on a highway all increase the pressure that's on a tire. Check with a mechanic to be sure and stay safe.
