Go somewhere that says its ok.
When they take it off, if they say its ok, say perfect.
OR, say, please tell me if its not patchable BEFORE you do anything.
I say this because I said that to the pricks at American Tire Co, they said it was patchable THEN took the screw out THEN said, "yeahhhhhh, the screw went in sideways and we can't patch it" (BS at its best) then I said, "ok, put it back on, I'll take it somewhere else"
"Sorry sir... We took the screw out and can't patch it... You need a new tire"
"Good, better be a free tire, because I don't have the money, you said you could patch it and I TOLD you not to mess with it if you couldn't patch it"
"Well our manager can give you a good deal on a new or used tire"
"Yeah, free, I didn't tell you to take the screw out, you're putting a tire on for free"
3 min later, my tire was patched, I told the other guy who patched it if it was a legit and clean patch, he said it was easy and 100% fine... I tipped him $10 and the tire did well until the car took a swim.
