I've got 2 punctures whilst out today,& the stans fluid won't seal one of the holes any ideas ?
Patch it or use an anchovy
Too big a hole?
possibly old, dried out stans fluid? When did you last top up/change the fluid?
Fluids 2/3 months old !
Got a puncture on Sunday. Topped up with fresh stans fluid, pumped up, sealed lovely, back riding. I think if you top up every 3 months give or take a little, you should find those little holes will seal. Still impressed with tubeless set up.
Glitter?
Whats an anchovies Simon ?,apart from stating the obvious !
It's a plug of rubber. I'm sure there are better explanations
I'll top.it up tommora & stick some glitter in ,saves the kids thrown it all I've the house ,thx guys .
Anchovy or superglue

used for the first time at the weekend. surprisingly easy.
and sometimes the tyre is only fit for 'tubed' use...
Try a standard tube patch on the inside of the tyre and superglue on the outside - but if out and about, I use an anchovy.
I've learnt something there !
You'll be best to use a gel type superglue if gluing a patch on. Something with a little stretch. I patch mine with a cutting from RIB repair material.
