Little gash in rear tire. Fixable?

Love the point/counterpoint from "ignore it" to "replace it". Talk about both ends of the spectrum.
Here's a suggestion no one's made....pull the tire, put a glue-on patch inside, corresponding where the gash is outside, then drive it till it's worn out.

This way, you've been proactive about preventing future air leaks at that spot, without being over reactive about tossing an otherwise perfectly good tire.

This reasoning is why I like you so much RadioHowie, you are part Mexican, just like Papa Chuy. I have done that at Las Llanterrias South of the Border at least ten times, never with Los Problemos!

Then he shipped this tire to SkooterG in Skootsdale, Arizona; and, Skooty got another 900 miles out of it!!!

Yeah, this tire ran for over 300 miles with this..
