Is it possible to buy sludge in a can to squirt directly into our multi sized assortment of pushchair and chariot wheels?

Bit fed up of fixing punctures!

you can try the car ones? Think the green stuff you get a Halfords is available as an aerosol too.

anythign with a tube in is unlikely to stay puncture free with sealant in the tube, though, ime and you can't liberate the stans monsters when they form.

Are all the sludges the same? ie will stans work equally well as the car one, and will both work in inner tubes (seeing as they are each designed for different thicknesses of tubeless tyre)

Look out for aldi and lidl with little cans aerosols of sealant every now and then - you can also get them from bike shops but more expensive. I find they work well on slow punctures but not on quick ones. I have also put stans in tubes which also worked - but only works if the tube is not stretched much when blown up.

also can you get it in through a schrader valve without removing the core? or if not, are my cores likely to be removable?

The barbieri ones that PX/Oo have in every so often work well.
