What you had does not sound like Ride-On. I've used it in several sets of tires. It isn't sticky and tenacious. It washes out easily with water. I did have one incident where I had a screw in the tire, but the head had come off, making it difficult to know if there was anything still there. I had ridden on it quite a while without incident until, going down the interstate, the rear went flat. Apparently the Ride-On wasn't up to the task off fixing the hole that the long-lasting screw had finally wiggled and widened. I was able to plug it, however.My bike came with some goo in the front tire; I dimly remember the previous owner telling me he had installed a flat proofing product in that tire. This summer the tire needed to be replaced and I took the front wheel and my new tire to a local performance shop - because they had come highly recommended, they offered to do it the same day I brought them the wheel, and because they did spin balancing. I was charged an additional $15 to clean the rim - the inside of the tire and rim were coated with an incredibly sticky, tenacious goo (I got the old tire back).
I will probably change my own tire next time, but will probably not use an anti-flat product in the tire because of the unbelievable mess. Bear this in mind...though I admit it is a cheap price to pay for peace of mind and flat proofing the front wheel.
Yes it works, quite well IMO.Has anybody installed a Ride On chemicals on their tires?To make run flat free?

When I told my tire guy that I used RideOn in a set of tires, he figured it was like all the other goop stuff and chewed me out for the future mess. Once we dismounted the tires we were pleased to see it only adhered to the couple of inch wide patch where the rubber meets the rode just like the product claims. Never tested it's sealing ability, but it dynamically balanced the tire well.What you had does not sound like Ride-On.

Thanks for the video.that doesn't sound like Ride On. Maybe fixa flat or something and it's a mess.
See this review for ride on.

Tire shop sold me on this. Always liked an internal balancer and the sealant is a "peace of mind" bonus.
