I never use soap anymore because it rusts the rim and a tire won't seat on a rusted rim. When I have a tire changed by a shop I ask them to use grease and they never give me a problem. If a bead won't seat properly and leaks, I dismount the tire and put a bead of cheap house silicon on the rim in the bead area. Put vasoline on the rim first to keep it from permantly sticking to the rim. I change all my own tires (except when away from home), and have used ether for many years with no problems. It is best to have someone with experience to show you how to do it. It won't work when the temperature is really cold; the ether just burns and doesn't explode. I spray the ether in the tire and then run a trail of ether on the outside of the tire to act as a wick. Throw the match on that trail. I heard of an inexperienced person lost his fingers trying to throw the match inside of the tire. There is risk in most everything we do in this life. Don't proceed if you think that the risk is too great.
