I made the mistake of putting an anti leak mix into my motorbike tyres many years ago. A green liquid full of fine fibres. Any puncture would be immediately clogged with the fibres.

In it went for a service and the mech checked the tyre pressures. The fibres blocked the valves as soon as he placed the pressure tester on them.

He had to drill out the valves to deflate the inner tubes to replace both valves and inner tubes.
