Can you fix a tyre sidewall with super glue? In this video, I show you if it lasts and compare it to using rubber tyre filler.

You can buy the Rubber Filler I used in this video from Amazon:

The wife recently curbed the wheel which pinched the tyre and cut a chunk of rubber out of the sidewall. I first tried super gluing the flap down, however, this only lasted a couple of weeks before it started peeling away. I think this was down to flex in the sidewall and the glue not being able to withstand varying weather conditions.

In this video I test Topseal Rubber Fill Tyre Repair, a one part polyurethane based compound, which is designed to repair cuts and cracks.
