    Tyre repairs have to be carried out to :-
    All tyre fitters sales and repairers have copies of this and MUST and DO work to it. How does it become a matter of utter confusion amongst you ?

    The manufacturing Standard for condoms is BS ISO:4074 2002 ., Suggest you trade at reputable outlets, for tyre repairs as well !
