Ultraseal is a viscous gel-like liquid, that does not flow like water. Approximately 80% of the minimum required application amount coats the entyre inner surface of the tyre/rim. The remaining 20% is considered the reserve, which does settle to the bottom only when a tyre is stationary.

When dismounting a tyre containing Ultraseal, there is not enough product collected at the bottom that would allow it to splash out.

If the mechanic breaks the bead prior to releasing all the air from the tyre, the Ultraseal around the bead/rim attempts to prevent the air from escaping, resulting in a small amount of Ultraseal blowing out, as the bead breaks away from the rim. To prevent this from happening, release all of the air pressure prior to breaking the bead.

Once a mechanic understands the simple basics on handling Ultraseal there is never a problem.
