Can I just put some slime on a hole in an inner tube to patch it?

No, you have to shoot about four ounces through the valve, rotate the tire for awhile and then blow it up.

This mainly works by a glob inside the tube being forced into a hole by air pressure. Just coating the outside probably would not be effective - in doesn't laminate.

No unfortunately you can't. You would need a patch kit to do that. Patch kits are really cheap and pretty easy to use. The liquid in the slime does a little to help patch a hole but the pieces of fragments in the slime do most of the hole clogging. slime is ment to be put into the tube and it works as the air rushes out and the little fragments stop up the hole as they are too large to exit through the hole.

Yes, I did that exact repair.You must do this in stages, as it will take more than one application, if a hole is involved.This formula drys to a hard finish, build it up by stages.

I would just mix a tsp in a small squirt bottle that holds a pint of water and spot treat the area

Yes you can apply it by making a hole with a rod and putting a couple of Tbsp of Mycorrhizae in the hole and covering it. The rod should be a foot or more long.

It will patch a hole, but so will bondo. If you need to restore the structure, this will be better, but you need to use the liquid epoxy first, the the paste to fill the void.

I would apply it from the back, if possible, with a needle or maybe a Q-tip. If you can do it this way the holes would look like tiny darker spots but they would not get any bigger.

I believe a patch for an inner tube or pool will do the trick or if you want to be even cheaper DUCT TAPE FIXES ALL. Lol! Seriously though duct tape or pool patches will do it. Once its patched though I myself would be a little more leery about when my dog lays on it because the patch or the tape could come off or if you have a Whisky, thats my dog, they could decide that the patch/tape looks interesting enough to play with and end up with a huge mess everywhere. Thats what happen with the first one I got for him lasted all of 5 minutes out of the box. lol

Unclep1, I haven't used slime on tubed tires, but they make a tire slime for tubes. Here: http://www.amazon.com/Slime-10004-Tube-Sealant-oz/dp/B000ENSRS0/ref=sr_1_4?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1400536620&sr=1-4

You can use the compressor as many times as you like for adding air to any tire. The slime cartridge is good for one tire repair only. The whole can goes into the tire. You can buy replacement cartridges which have a suggested retail value around $15 but can be had online for about 8 bucks plus shipping. The repair is considered temporary and the manufacturer recommends having flats repaired with slime professionally repaired at your earliest possible convenience. The idea behind this kit is to get you back on the road and home quickly and safely if you have a flat in a car that does not have a spare.

These patches are primarily for patching small holes in inner tubes and tires and work well for that purpose. I think one of these is more what you're after:

I dug it out with a small glass and tile bit. it widened thehole just perfect so the patch head is interchangeable. Also put a tiny dab of sculpey flesh tone clay on the inside so it stays on just stiff enough and can be easily removed.

You can make your own saline solution, there's lots of articles on the internet on how to do it.

No you don't. Just add the dye. You might have to had some freon to get some pressure in your system so the leak will happen.

I've used slime tubes for months after the first puncture. In fact, my kids bikes (24" mtn bikes) have had more punctures than I could count before having to replace the tube. The key is to always have an extra tube with you so you don't get stuck.

I am unsure if it is ok for tube tiresI do know they make the same formula for bicycles and they are tube. I suggest looking on Slimes website and contacting them directly

I have not made slime with it, but I did make a very gooey concoction for another project. I would say that this glue would be a great addition to any slime recipe.
