Come on then brainiacs, give me a fix for this

[Gunk]

Take off the tyres, thoroughly degrease both the rims and the tyres - remove the rim strip if possible. Put new rim tape on and pump thre tyres up to the correct pressure - I'm guessing that's probably around 45-55psi.

It’ll be less than that, more like 35 psi, I would suggest you clean everything with brake cleaner or alcohol.

Double sided sticky tape?

a quick google suggests putting spots on tubular glue on the tyre , enough to stop slippage but not so much you cant get it off .

Has this on a tour and just replaced the tyres, as we had landed at the airport, ridden into town and ruined all our spare tubes in a lashing thunderstorm. Very memorable. Two tyres and six tubes later we were sorted.

Thanks for the suggestions lads. Im going to try smearing some patch glue on the outside edge if the tyre's bead and allow it to set. Im hoping this will provide enough fresh tackiness to solve the problem.

It's like @Yellow Saddle's fix (i think) but without having to go to the shops.

Sod it, i just bought some belt dressing of off the ebay. I let you all know how i get on.

Belt dressing on the beads.

...... was the right answer!

A brilliant solution @Yellow Saddle, thanks! It worked a treat! I went all the way to the chemist and back and the valves did not end up at 45 degrees to the rim. Fab. I can now use my brakes without fear of ripping my valves off.
