Because I've never heard of Green Slime, at first I thought you were joking, but then I found this:

Coincidentally, the guy in the video was having a very slow leak similar to ours, but ours is even slower than his.

I have to wonder what happens to the slime inside the tire. In short, I'm pretty leery of this "fix". Does it just continue to slosh around in there for months or years, or does it more or less solidify over time? How does it affect the balance of the tire? Is the stuff very light in weight?

Thanks.
