Trip to the Georgia mountains this weekend.
This was a fail on the way though.

Continuation of the above post... This nail in my tire. I've got about a 100 mile drive back home tomorrow. There's no one open in this area on Sunday to plug the hole before we leave. I made an appointment at home tomorrow, but do you think it's okay to drive on? It's really stuck in there and lost about 2.5 pounds of air overnight last night. I can refill it before heading out.

Could always stop at an auto parts store and buy a plug kit

New tire on the way. Too close to the sidewall to repair. Baller status:

That thing annoys the crap out of me on a daily basis. I've treated it probably 100 times and nothing seems to last more than a week.

Did you try a torch? The heat restores the black and usually lasts a decent amount of time.

Eric shared a video showing someone using a heat gun way back. I still haven't tried that method, but it does look promising.

Try using a product ~5 times. Apply, wait 10 minutes, wipe with a microfiber, repeat.
I use this stuff:

I wonder what those weird lines are about on your lower bumper, my car has the same thing...
