The tubes, patches, and adhesives aren't what they used to be. Even 30 years ago my dad would complain that ever since they got rid of hot vulcanized patches in favor of cold patches, they weren't any good. He would be very diligent about cleaning the tube with a special wire brush in the drill, use just the right amount of cement, and NEVER touch the sticky side of the patch with your fingers.
