Tyre Repair Sealant

Post by Johnaldo »

I recently had a puncture, and as I have no spare wheel I decided to try the "ContiMobilityKit" as supplied with my V60. What I didn't realise is that I had a one inch cut on the inside wall of the tyre, so the sealant wouldn't work.

Anyway, all sorted with a new tyre ... but now I think I ought to replace the bottle of sealant ready for next time.

First look on the web was a shock - £47 !! I eventually found one at £22.

Has anyone else purchased a replacement and found it cheaper?

And, under the assumption that the compressor tube is full of gunge, does that need replacing too?

All advice welcome (except "you should have bought a car with a spare wheel").

John
