Bill Burke used that very kit on my sidewall gash in Moab. It held at rock crawling pressure, but when I aired up on the street, the plugs all shot out. I prefer the kits that use the rubber cement to the "special Lube". But it is special. If the gash were any bigger I would have been SOL without a spare.

What in the wild wild World of Sports were you doing in MOAB without a Spare? 
To be honest I would never try to plug a sidewall with any Tire repair kit be it special lube or rubber cement. A sidewall hole brings da AAA

Bill just wanted to try plugging the sdewall as an educatinal exercise to see if it would work and for how long. I HAD a spare.

Re: Need opions
The plugs shot out after we parted ways and I hit the street. But I did tell him about it later.
