Dried sealant question

So I had a new set of wheels that I set up this past spring, rode 1x and then they sat (really nice set of DT240 laced to 35/40mm BTLOS). Mounted 30mm Corsa Controls and used orange seal endurance.


Let them sit, dry out and didn’t rotate them.

Now on the stand the rear wheel has a noticeable wobble/unbalance when spun due to the extra weight inside the tire at what was the low point.

I filled each tire with another 40ml of sealant and was planning to try out tomorrow on a ride.

Question: will refilling with the sealant like I did reabsorb some of the dried sealant? I feel like I’ve heard that before that it should reactivate/absorb the dried stuff…or am I SOL if there is a noticeable wobble on the road tomorrow and just have to take the tire off and remove the dried sealant that pooled and dried…

Anyone have experience?

I’ll be testing out on a 20 mile ride tomorrow so we’ll see what happens but curious if others experience.

Thanks
