Now that I've finally found the right colour and finish for me, I suppose I'll have to answer in the affirmative. :)

I've now given all 4 wheels 3 coats of PoorBoys wheel sealant, and dressed the tyres. :) ...............Ready to go on the car in emergency*, or next winter - whichever come first.

*V-rated tyres can only have one repair. One of the set has already had one puncture. Another one in the same tyre and it's game-over for the whole set. :(
