The hole is probably .25mm in size. Was thinking of using a standard tube patch on the inside of the tire and then cover the patch with some Gorilla Tape.

Who has had success with an internal patch and what did you use?
This size hole should have just sealed by itself with sealant. What sealant were you using?
