Got a rec here a few years ago on this subject to use a sealant called Tire ject in my Ranger 500. Turned out to be a good one. For mesquite and cactus country, is there a better one nowadays or is TireJect still the one? Thanks.

I’ve used Slime in many tires. Works great. Washes off easily.

I use Quadboss ATV and Dirt Bike tire sealant in my Polaris General tires. Works great, very easy to use, and supposedly easier to clean out of tires and wheels than Slime.
I'd rather be a free man in my grave, than living as a puppet or a slave....

Gemplers sells two different grades. I have used the less expensive grade with good results. My wife's cousin's husband manages a hunting lease in West Texas and they use a product called black slime from Myers Tire Supply. They don't hesitate to drive over any thing and claim they have never had a problem. I just put some in the tires on our Gator.

For mesquite and cactus country, is there a better one nowadays or is TireJect still the one? Thanks. I still use Tire Ject for lots of stuff. You do have to refresh it over time though, or it looses liquidity. I have gone to using MuliSeal Pro HD 2500 in some tractor tires though. One time application. No refreshing. https://multiseal.us/products/prohd-2500/It'll seal up to a 3/4" diameter hole... You cannot mix the two though. If you mix different type sealers, chances are they will ball up inside the tire and not work.

It works. But your tire guy isn’t going to like it when you get new ones.
Camp is where you make it.

Met an old boy in his 70's in a huge prairie dog town in eastern Montana. Never married. He had sheet metal screws in all 4 tires and a handful in his pocket. Said they worked great.

I’ve used Slime in many tires. Works great. Washes off easily. Just don’t put it in a tire that has a plug in it already. Dissolves the glue. Instant flat that doesn’t reseal. Did it.
