So long as you ordered the correct type then it's ok to use it.To be quite honest I think there may be some marketing hype between the tubeless and tube-type slime.I have a rough idea of it's chemical usage and think they may be the same or so close as not to be a worry.
The instructions are on the Bottle e.g spin the tyres once it's in or just go for a ride.I made a BooBoo and only got the 8oz this time.I should have got the 16oz to do two motorcycle wheels.Talking with some of the blokes I ride with and they say it must be working if I've not had a puncture in near 5 years back riding as they have all had punctures and blow-outs :o

If it's n 8oz bottle use it all in the one with the slow.Should work.It did one of mine but the other slow came back about a year later but still not had a puncture.
