tubeless newbie fail

Just screwed up when trying to add more air to a tubeless tyre when the valve was at the bottom, so most, if not all of the sealant inside escaped as it was collected at the bottom.

Have since spun the wheel and can hear no liquid inside anymore, so looks like I need to add more.

Question: Does it matter what sealant I top up with? Should I get rid of all remaining sealant if there is any inside and add again so I have the right amount?

Again, newbie to this setup - so go easy.

:mrgreen:

    I would advise that first you try adding more sealant, and no need to get rid of the old stuff that remains. I've only ever used Stan's so no idea if another brand would mix okay but my guess is it won't matter.
