slow leak
« on: July 05, 2024, 09:49:34 PM »
Good Evening
Any one have an extremely slownleak in one of their tires around the bead?
This thing is driving me nuts. I have inspected the rim, the bead and haven't  seen anything out of place. I had a shop remount the tire and it's still dropping.
Any ideas????

Long long ago I slipped mine over a sand cliff and down in a riven and as it impacted on the driver's side it popped both beads on the tires on that side. After winching back up onto the trail we aired the tires back up but..there was a little sand in the bead which made them both leak a little. At home I popped both back off, cleaned them up and re-set them. Both still lost pressure over time so I got some of this bead sealant and pulled the front back off. Looking close before applying the sealant I see the sand left deep scratches across the wheel's bead surface. The sealant fixed that on the front....and I still need to pull the back one off and so the same but it takes a month to loose 2psi so I haven't made it a priority. Take a look ate the wheel and tire surfaces after cleaning with acetone or lacquer thinner for scratches. If any use something like this:
