Never heard of "Counterweight Blue." I've heard or "Rim Guard" aka beet juice, and have a few gallons of it in a pair of tires that were mounted tubeless to seal up any small leaks at the beads. Tire guy uses it like tire slime because it is thick and sticky. Seems to work.
As long as it's not a salt, it has to be easier on rims. It's probably far and away more expensive than calcium chloride, but if you're happy, does it really matter?
Everybody complains about calcium chloride, but they never sit down and think how long it's been in the tire. I had to change out a rim this summer because the valve stem had been seeping, apparently for a few years by the looks of things. and the rim was rotted around the valve stem hole. New tires were put on that tractor in 1987, and haven't been touched since, so it took 36 years for the rim to rot out.
Half of everyone here thinks you're asking about a barrel of concrete for some reason...
