Hoop Goop Tyre Sealant

Ride Mechanic Hoop Goop is a concentrated latex-based sealant tubeless tyre puncture repair.

Features:

• Seals holes in tubeless tyres.
• Latex concentrate formulation made in Australia;
• Fresh sealant is the best sealant – remove and replace regularly.
• Remove and replace before an important event.
• 235ml pack size.
• Only 60ml of fresh Hoop Goop is required for a 2.25" 29 XC tyre in a race.

Directions For Use:

1. Ensure syringe compatible valves – 3.5mm ID through valve core.
2. Deflate the tyre and remove the valve core.
3. Rotate so that valve is at the bottom – sealant flows to the bottom under gravity.
4. Attach the syringe to the tube and insert it into the valve stem. Suction on the syringe to remove old sealant. Clean syringe and tube with fresh water.
5. Add fresh sealant into the 60ml squeeze bottle. Depress tyre to evacuate some air. Connect squeeze bottle to the valve stem.
6. Add sealant into tyre via stem. Remove squeeze bottle and clean with fresh water. Clean valve stem with a cotton bud and replace valve core.
7. Inflate tyre and record date fresh sealant was added. Replace and exchange again within a month.

Over time the sealant loses its ability to seal holes. After several months the sealant has probably dried to a latex film or boogers inside the tyre or separated into a useless oily liquid.

Fresh sealant is the best sealant. For a big event do not hope that your old sealant is going to work. Make sure it works by adding fresh.
