Hot patching and "Hot Glue" patching. WHile similarly named were 2 different practices... died out in the 70s because hot glue patching was faster and required less proficiency. I remember seeing hot patches but never used them...When I was 8 or 9 I worked at the local Phillips 66 station for a few weeks. (You could do this in the fifties and early sixties, before the gummint got involved). My job was patching tubes and tires. I did a lot of them, using the hot patch. I roughed up the rubber around the puncture using some weird tool. Then I smeared some sort of liquid cement on the tire/tube and the back of the patch. After a minute or so, I stuck them together and lit them on fire. I blew the fire out after about 10 seconds and put the clamp on. Took the clamp off after about 30 mins and put the tire back together.
Those are very tame compared to some Rammstein lyrics.

I was so hoping to see Rammstein at Rock am Ring in the early 2000s.
Had to settle with seeing Chevelle, Marlyin Manson, Metallica, Linkin park, Korn, evanescence, Tool, system of a down, drowning pool.
Good times
