Topstone 1, tires never held air more than a couple of days, they were losing air from the sidewall. Replaced the tires with a Cinturato Gravel M in front and Cinturato Gravel H in the rear. They both lose air constantly. They were installed by a local bike shop with Muc-Off. Is it possibly the rims or do I need to strip and use a different sealant.

Use Orange Seal. Muc-Off sucks.
More sealant and more rides. that usually does it for me.
You need waaayyy more sealant and you should be pumping to the max pressure so that they’re seated properly.
You need minimum of 100ml sealant first time to help seal everything.
Other possibility is your rim tape is a bit screwed up.
I’ve not had great success with the muc-off stuff, it’s too thick. The best sealant I’ve ever come across is stans race sealant, well worth the extra few £ over their standard sealant which most others use.
I have the same tires and tried it for weeks with muc off. It didn’t work out for me. I’m back to tubes.
I’ve used muc off sealant for 2 years now, no issues for me. Is there are coming from your spoke nipples or from the bead?
