    What recipes are there for ghetto tyre sealant? I have been told of a recipe from an stw member here of equal parts liquid latex and screen wash with a smidge of playpit sand. Can anyone add to that?

    I use, or used to use, 1 tbl spoon of latex, 1tbl spoon of windscreen wash, 1 tbl spoon of Slime, and 1/4 cup of water, stirred well and put into the tyre.
    This came from someone on here back in 2003, or thereabouts, when I first had a pair of tubeless wheels built up, and I’ve been using exactly the same recipe ever since.
    The Slime adds fibre to the mix, which helps the latex to coagulate and solidify in the puncture.
