    Thank you
    All I can say the ones with the sealant in is a slep to get out later (well, for the tyre shop) but will get you out off a pickle.

    Will take a photo later of the one I used before

    Once upon a time, in the Kruger park, I sat by waterhole for an hour or so watching elephants. Come time to leave and I have a flat. Not wanting to change the tyre I put in a can of 4x4 stuff from Midas.

    Next day we went into town to get it checked at the tyre place. They took off the wheel and dumped the whole ting in a big tin bath .... nothing... they pumped it a bit more .... nothing, they checked the valve ..... nothing. They had a guy get the soap and brushed all over the tyre ..... nothing.

    THEY reckoned that it must have been a thin thorn and putting the muti in under pressure pushed the thorn out and the muti then sealed the tyre. Stayed like that until I changed tyres.

    Lusted for a Landy but the Pajero was sexier and bigger in the right departments, just like my Missus.

    Mine was similar, I mean the stuff is supposed to seal it again, within reasonable terms. Would not fix a sidewall gash.

    But it is a mission to get the stuff out. Sticky gunky crap.

    But it works

    Mine has been in my two Landies, previous and current, for more than 20 years.

    Not sure if it will work.
    Luckily I have other backups.
