I've had and seen punctures from Bolts, screws, nails, staples, etc. But the latest trend around here seems to be roofing nails from "Roofers Gone Wild" and not properly cleaning up after their job. And of course, my neighbors come to me with their leaks and air related problems. 8 of the last 10 have been roofing nails.

If you have access to a infrared thermal imaging camera a leak, even a tiny one will show as a cool spot since the air rushing out will cause cooling of the rubber around the hole. If you do your own repair to get yourself out of a bind be sure to take the tire eventually to a garage that can inspect & balance it. Slime may get you home off the side of the road in a pinch but.... get it looked at . I wouldn't leave it in there & rely on it without a proper repair & the tire rebalanced. Especially highway speeds driving! The aluminum pits & corrodes on the bead of aluminum wheel and after some time it gets so bad that the goop your tire guy puts on it won't work & the bead pits must be sanded down & then sealer reapplied. Best to have snows on steel rims & reseve the aluminium for summer use only. As stated , the legality of plugs varies from state to state. Some places will allow two plugs per tire but not 3.

Great tips, thanks for sharing! Definitely not a fan of the tire slime either. Some shops even have an added fee for cleaning away old slime.

Love the modern science!

Thanks for including the "few drops" as this was the sole reason I watched this. I very much enjoyed the other learning I got. Fixing utility trailer tire leaks will help cut some of my expenses, though I prefer having a shop break down the tire and patch the inside. As I can, I will find and mark the leak(s) for the shop with my white tire marking crayon. Excellent video.
