It is almost impossible to hold an blow gun tip into (i.e., within and against) the Presta valve body (without the valve core). Much easier to use a blow gun soft tip over and around the Presta valve body (without the valve core). Does your blow gun have a 1/8" NPT fitting? If so, I can just send you one of the tips I bought if you cover shipping.
Hi,

I tried screwing the presta to Schrader adapter into a tubeless valve as an experiment. The tire was already inflated, but I suspect the valve wasn't on well and the air leaked out from behind the seal, so possibly user error.

Looks like my blowgun is 1/4" NPT, appreciate the offer though 😊. Maybe I just need a different blowgun, can you link one that would work?
