I'm glad to know about Muc-Off for tubed tires run at lower pressures. I
may try that one day to avoid the admittedly much reduced hassles of
tubeless tires on non-tubeless rims.

For the record: with tubes at 50 psi, Orange Seal regular formula works a
metaphorical, not statistical 98% compared to the same stuff or its
Endurance cousin in tubeless tires at an actual 100%, so far. Note again:
Endurance didn't work for me in tubes at 50-60 psi, tho' it's my choice for
low pressure tubeless. If you run *much less than 50 *psi in your tubes,
then Muc-Off *may be* the better choice than Orange Seal.

Second, another make of sealant -- Specialized Airlock -- for tubes *did
not work* for me in tubes at 35 to 40 psi, which is why I switched to
tubeless for the Naches Pass tires even tho' my rims are not tubeless
designed. But Specialized does offer it in a 5 gal family size. (I bought
the pints.)

Muc-off has good reviews. But we'll see how an imminent (tomorrow!) Orange
Seal replacement for the Naches Pass tires (tubeless on non-tubeless rims)
goes. If all this requires is one more wrap of Stan's tape and then we're
set for life of the tire, then I'll stick with tubeless. The shop people
say that this sort of hack works very well once things settle into place.

Perhaps one day someone will offer road-width, silver, 32-hole tubeless rim
brake rims in the 559 mm bead size.
