Seems to last me only a couple of months in hot weather before it dries out (Orange Seal). It's a good idea to remove the tire and clean it like every other time. The sealant dries into a puddle and will add weight and throw the wheel out of balance. Alcohol won't work. Picking, peeling, and scrubbing works removing dried sealant. Liquid sealant can be washed out with water. I have removable valve cores and inject sealant through the valve stem with a syringe. Less messy than pouring sealant into the tire and putting the bead on. Also, you will have to replace a valve core from time to time because sealant gets in it. Buy some extras on eBay.
