Hey Mods,
I was watching a video from the UK and the host was demoing Auto seal by Bike seal tire puncture preventative. Any idea if we can get something similar here in the states?

Re: Tire Puncture preventative
In my experience, the various kinds of tire seal you spray inside scooter or motorcycle tries make a gosh awful mess for when you change the tire. Given that tubeless tires has just about eliminated the blowout risk for scooters, I find that taking a tire plug kit with me has pretty much solved my need to deal with the risk of tire punctures.

Yeah the stuff he was using was water based a lot cleaner, unlike the green stuff and pretty effective according to the UK mods.

I've used Slime and Ride-on in the past. Ended up with flats in both the tires despite. Some say Ride-on balances the wheel as well. I don't know about that, but it didn't do squat against the screw my rear tire picked up.
