Troubleshooting
Sealant isn't sealing the puncture.
Check the puncture size. The sealant effectively seals punctures up to 7mm. If the puncture is larger, the sealant might not be able to seal it. Also, ensure the sealant has been properly shaken and distributed.
Tire pressure is still decreasing.
Check for other punctures or leaks. If the puncture is small, the sealant may take some time to fully seal it. Check the valve stem for any leaks. Ensure the tire is inflated to the correct pressure.
Sealant is drying out.
The sealant might need to be replenished. Regular inspection and topping up of sealant is recommended, especially for frequent riders or during extended periods of inactivity.
