I don't know anything about sealmate, but I have seen people use 35mm film to the same effect.

I just "made my own" from some plastic package and it worked great! no more leak and i just got back from a 2 hour ride. Got some large particles out from the seal.

seal mate works excellent! saved me from replacing fork seals on several bikes ive fixed up. Ive tried camera film before and it ended up breaking off inside my seal
