Jbr Posted September 3, 2021 Share 11 hours ago, BaGearA said: Why not just pop the tyre off on the one side ? Going through the valve just seems like a massive ball ache to me straight in the tyre when you are putting it on, through the valve is only for top ups, never had to do it on a mtb though as I don't puncture that often. On the road bike though at least once a month I get a messy one that sprays sealant all over the bike, so I do top up occasionaly through the valve. at the moment I use the stan's race sealant, the one they say is likely to clog your valves... can't say it's not a good sealant, I actually never really had a bad experience... especially for MTBs, I don't think any sealant out there will give you issues on the MTB, the pressures are so low... on the road bikes it's another story.

love2fly Posted September 3, 2021 Share Re the strong chemical smell - this is usually ammonia and can sometimes corrode where you have different metals in contact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselnDust Posted September 3, 2021 Share I never add sealant while the tyre is off. Always add it with the tyre seated. No chance of spillage and getting it all over the rim. Seat the tyre first then add sealant via the valve. Simple, never had an issue when using the Enduro seal applicator. Those syringe jobbies are crap. The pipe is so small it filters out the grit and you only end up with latex in the tyre. The Stans and Enduro Seal applicators work well enough. The Enduro seal applicator is free with a 1L bottle so its a no brainer ChrisF, dasilvarsa and Rolf Hansen 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MudLark Posted September 3, 2021 Share Ryder. I have used a number of other sealants. I am tired of having to peel stuff out of tyres. It is almost always a laborious and time consuming job. The Ryder just washes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant Prince Posted September 3, 2021 Share Thanks for all the info. Do you think it is ok to mix sealant? Use another brand when topping up? Also do you ever remove lealant before topping up i guess it can loose some properties and then mixing old and new May dilute the newly added. Been having some puncture issues lately.

ChrisF Posted September 3, 2021 Share About 5 years ago my LBS recommended "Uni-seal SLUDGE" Thousands of kilometers later, and many many thorns later, we are HAPPY with this product. It works equally well in tubeless, as well as in tubes. Used it in Maritz's bikes for years when we could not do tubeless conversions to his smaller bikes. I now also use it on the tubes with my 50C tires, as these tires are not tubeless ready.... I have seen the post ride evidence of white droplets on the downtube of a puncture that got sealed without interupting my ride. I also first seat the the tires, get the job done, then add the sealant via the valve. Top-ups are done this way. Maybe 2 minutes per tire. Clean. Easy, no hassles.
