Question Any gotchas when changing a tire that used Ride-On?

I was planning to change a tire for one of the guys I ride with next week using my No-Mar manual tire changer. This person told me he uses Ride-On in his tires. I've read about the product on the forum here, but I've never used it. Will this product make a mess all over my garage and tire machine when I remove the tire from the rim? Is there anything special I need to do when working on a wheel that has Ride-On inside?

it is similar to slime, never dries and stays fluid. it should wash easily, but i have never taken my tires off yet.

slime does wipe off with dawn and water.

Hi all,
I run in all my tires and haven't had any issue at all. All the product is in the middle of the tire. Washes out with a hose easily, hardest part is getting all the water out......goldie
