2 of these failures were on 42c “gravel” tyres, other 2 on 38c “gravel” tyres
I'm running bigger tyres than that on the road. I'm running mid-30 psi. I ran them (accidentally) below 20 psi and didn't even notice until I basically folded the tyre cornering way too hard after missing a turn.

To be fair 2 of these failures were on 42c “gravel” tyres, other 2 on 38c “gravel” tyres, just happened to be in between “gravel” when they happened - 2 I think were bits of gravel that got pushed through by the tarmac. Ultimately they didn’t seal, although muc off did a much better job of trying than orange endurance.
What I found annoying was that even after a few days the sealant wasn’t set, was expecting a rubberised glue type result.
how low pressure you running?
Maxxis super lite tube an option?
