[1] Years ago the Mrs picked me up from the station and as soon as we
pulled away I heard the anti-static strap rubbing on the ground and
that told me something wasn't right. I got her to stop and a quick
look round the car revealed a partially deflated rear tyre. I believe
if I was driving the vehicle I would have felt it. ;-( So I pumped it
up, we got home and I applied Punctureseal outside the house (still
wearing my suite g). The tyre was still on the car when I finally
broke it many years later. ;-)

Feck you nearly got to the end without mentioning spunkyseal again...



Erm, did you note the topic of this thread:

"Comments on Spare Wheel Alternatives".

I really can't think of a better place to discuss tyre sealants that
that!

And also I'd imagine you (with yer short attention span and yer
Twitter lifestyle) might need a specific product recommendation
signposted a few times to help you understand they aren't all created
equal?

We have already had the 'You can't clean the sealants out of the tyres
so they can't then be repaired professionally' when (at least one that
I have looked at so far) main makers states that's not true.

So, to stop these urban myths getting incorrectly repeated, we have to
make sure even the slowest person 'get's it'. ;-)
