My tractor mechanic guy said this was the stuff to get. It'll fix a 3/8" hole. Not plug the leak, or slow it, but FIX it.
I was discussing this with him because I was getting ready to have one of the tractor tire shops here install puncture sealant for tractor tires in all 4 of my big tractor for $600... 15 gallons total.
Just 3 gallons of TireJect is needed to treat all 4 tires.
Cost is about half the tire shop if I use the TireJect.
Never heard of it,but it would be worth the price if it works. I may have to give that stuff a try on some of our implements.

That's pretty interesting. I have a lot of thorn trees here, and am always getting flats from them. My biggest problem is my Polaris Ranger, as I use that thing almost every day, checking cows, fencing, and general farm use. I've been fighting a slow leak n one tire for a month. Finally put another bottle f Slime in it, and hope it'll stop it for a while. I bought a set of front tires for my biggest tractor a couple of years ago, because the old ones had been patched too many times. The first flat I had on the new ones, I took it to a local place ran by the Mennonites. They put a substance in the tire that has the look and consistency of a cross between grease and molasses. Supposedly, it will fix small punctures such as a nail or thorn. It may work for some thing, but it didn't work on one tire, and I had to put a tube in. I'm going to take a serious look at this stuff and will probably try some.
I have a Kubota RTV900 with a slow leaking rear tire that they can't seem to fix.

I put Slime in my 4-wheeler tires once-upon-a-time. It worked until the tires just rotted and I had to buy new ones, but it rusted the rims. I wonder if this stuff will rust the rims?

Randy, it says it won't.

Going on a week having this in my tractor fronts with no sign of the problem child getting flat.
That's great news, Barry! I'll be ordering some today.
