Another consideration, for those of you who are genuinely concerned about damage to belts and or opportunity for ply separation, the best of vulcanized patches do nothing to restore the structural damage caused by the screw etc. piercing through the belts.

IMHO, the risk is minimal with a normal nail puncture, but if you think the vulcanized patch heals this you're kidding yourself.
