Tire Slime

[jaredvh]

Has anybody tried this stuff? Does it work alright? Is it something you put in the tire before you get a flat or do you wait til your tire goes flat and then worry about it on the trail? THANKS

I've used it once or twice and it works alright for small leaks. What ever you do don't break open a jug of it in your quad box especially if its near your lunch

I use it alot, it works good on the trail for small punctures, but it' doesn't work very good on bead leaks,

I hate the stuff. It really doesn't help for anything other than a nail or small hole. I tried to use it on the trail for an emergency and I barely made it back to my truck. Which was less than a half mile. Once we got to my truck the stuff started spraying out of my tire. But it least it got me to my truck.

This is by far the best product I carry in my quad box for tire repair. The c02 canisters are the same ones you can buy at Canadian Tire for a pellet gun. I carry a 5 pack of extra co2 and also 2 extra packages of plugs. I've fixed gashes in my side walls larger than a quarter with this kit.
Heres a link. Good Luck.

I hate that slime crap. Just use a tire plug kit & buy a bike pump.
From experience, all the techs i talk to agree w/ me= str8 crap.
I usually charge an extra 5-10 $$ if that crap is in the tire.
