Hi

This must have been discussed here before, but my quick search didn't reveal much so here goes.

I have had this stuff recommended a few times & met many riders who religeously carry a can of it at all times.
I've been on rides where I or one of my riding companions have used it after getting a puncture, at least 5 times in the last year and a half.
Of the 5 times I've used it/seen it used, it sort of worked once. The rest of the time it just caused more hassle & mess and wasted everybody's time.

So I think in future when I get a puncture, I'm not even going to bother with it, and rather just do a propper repair first time.

What are your experiences with it?
