Was cruising through CB Performance's catalog, hot rod VW stuff. They
list a produce called Slime. It's a green goo that you put in the tires
and it allegedly seals leaks like fix a flat only it's used before the
fact - (pre-emptive strike). They list a varient of this that is for
tube type tires. I would assume this may be available "wherever Slime is
sold". Ususal disclaimers, NFI, just FWIW.
