Stan's is the usual winner in these polls

I've only used Halfords own orange muck and JRA Wheel Milk since I started playing with tubeless about 7 years ago.

The halfords stuff is ok, but I've found the wheel milk to be better. That said, Others may be better, but I find the JRA stuff adequate, and cheaper.

Joe's over Stan's every time. 3 tubeless bikes here, soon to be four.

Indeed.

Stan's over Wheel Milk undoubtedly, I found the latter dried out within a couple of weeks. Not tried Joe's.

Stans turns into a clear liquid with latexy blobs floating around in it after a month or 2. It's really not that good!

Started with Joe's then had a good deal on some Stan's... Have no problem with either, both do the job.

I used JRA's Wheel Milk for ages and it's fine. I found it ended up in a huge lump inside the tyre, so it's good for trail bikes where the priority is to avoid pinch-flats. If you have a risk of punctures like I do on the road - East Lothian has a lot of Hawthorn which is like needles - then you need your sealant to stay liquid. Stans does the job there better for me.

Not tried Joe's, Bontrager or the CaffeLatex foamy stuff which sounds good.

Here's another thread too. It got a bit cheeky.
