How do I clean the Air-Liner Protect?

Wipe it down with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

How do I know when to replace the insert?

Inspect it regularly for wear and tear. If you see significant damage or the foam is breaking down, it's time for a replacement.

The Air-Liner Protect is designed to not affect the rolling resistance.

What size tires are compatible?

Troubleshooting

Tire sealant leaking around the valve.

Ensure the valve is properly seated and tightened. Add more sealant if necessary.

Difficulty seating the tire beads.

Use a tire lever to carefully seat the beads, and use a compressor or a tubeless tire inflator to seat the tire.

Punctures still occurring.

Check tire pressure, ensure sealant is fresh, and inspect the tire for damage. Consider using more sealant.

Air-Liner Protect is damaged.

Replace the damaged insert immediately.
