MT are bad about leaking. I changed to Hoosier and they hold pressure for months.

I understand how ya could come up with those ways of gluing beads but the different types of soap and Coca Cola for leaks who figures that out. But grandma always said when they were passing out brains I thought they said trains and jumped behind the door and missed em. Please on agreeing with grandma.

My new Hoosiers are weird, one rear constantly leaked a small amount for about a year then without touching them stopped leaking on it's own. One of the fronts will hold pressure for month or more then go flat in 2-3 days. The other two have never leaked.

I've always used the dawn soap trick with good luck, I think I learned it on here long ago but still wonder who figured that out. My last sentence below should be "please no agreeing with grandma"

I use Palmolive soap on the inner sidewalls, coat it let it dry and coat it again. Aquanet hairspray on the beads and we're good to go. I think it works my junk sat in the trailer last year during Covid and the tires were still aired up fine after over a year.
