Not for men with a hipster beard.
If you have a beard, you should be able to change a tyre.

I thought changing the colour was the limit of hipsters abilities,nothing too complex.

does this affect the repairability of a punctured tyre ?

I remember reading that using this will mean you need a whole new tyre.

Tyres need washing out if this is used, but remain repairable as normal.

Sets like tar ,it will need more than a wash to remove it and majority of high st tyre fitters eg ATS,Kwik fit,will refuse to repair it ,probably in hope of flogging you a new skin.

Home bargains sell different branded one for £1.99
If this is for 15/16" tyres, can more than one can be used for a larger (22") tyre?

in this case, it looks much better to use goop-like stuff - also tire won't go flat in most of the cases with it and it's easy to clean.
Just lately I found a nail in a tire only when checking thread, plus after adding it (500ml bottle for 4 tires, 50% recommend for my car) air loss ratio was way much smaller.
Recently changed tires and will buy ot again just waiting for price drop. But about 6 months ago I found a British manufacturer of goop-like stuff in resealable like bags. Price was much better but can't find it again, anyone?
