Default Slime for Tires

Anybody got any other suggests for sliming my atv tires? I have used the green slime and it doesn't work. It seems like it just shows you there is a leak and it neve seals. I ride my atv eveyday and need something that will actually work. Thanks.

Sometimes the hole is too big for slime to seal. Put a tube in it.

Maybe but these aren't big holes. Just pin holes. Moat are from cactus or little mesquite thorns. Takes the tires about 2 days to go flat. You would like slime could stop a leak like that.

I would try putting a plug in the holes. I have used plugs many times and no problems. I would not put a tube in the tire just because if you have a flat on the trail, you have to break it down to fix it. Fourwheeler tires can be a pain to break down.

Yea i have used plugs. I was just hoping there was something better stuff than that slime that i could put in my tires. that would seal up little holes.

Quad Boss makes a sealant that works, I had more nails in my stock tires than I could count,......just pulled the nail and kept riding. It isn't cheap but you won't have to worry about a flat until you put on some new tires.

You might try the Super Duty Slime and see if that works better for you. It has larger particles for plugging the holes.

Good luck !!
