How to use a puncture repair kit on a tubeless tire

Puncture repair kits are a mainstay in most riders' toolbelts, but most fail to practice use of their puncture kit or even learn how it works before going on a ride. This leaves riders stranded and embarrassed when they can't get their repair kit to work. Bombard Bicycles wants to remove that stress and make roadside repairs easy and quick.
In order to fix a puncture on a tubeless tire you must first locate the site of the puncture and remove any debris near the hole. Next you want to take your punctures kit applicator fork and apply a tire slug (patch). Insert the patch horizontally into the puncture hole until a quarter of the length of the patch is hanging out. Slowly remove your applicator fork from the tire.
If the patch works you should hear the previous hissing noise slowly come to a stop as the patch hardens. Before riding away make sure to remove any excess patch hanging off the tire. Re-inflate your tire and ride away.
