How to inflate a tire with a can of inflator/sealant

I inflate a flat tire with a can of sealant and test drive the car afterwards.

My front tire went out because it's an old one. And i used this to get to the shop for a new tire. I bought a new tire and got zero complaimts from them about it being messy and everything worked out just fine. Everyone is complaining about it ruining your tire, but... If your tire goes flat. Wouldn't you want a new tire anyways???

Thank you for your video🙋‍♀ . I think your demonstration was simple and straightforward. I'm going to try it today or tomorrow for my minivan tire. The only thing is that I don't have a compressor to put more air or one of those measurement tools




(I wouldn't know how to use it either 🤦‍♀). So, I'll just use it and go straight to the tire shop🤷‍♀. Thanks, again🙏. Blessings

My tire guy said to avoid these products. You are better off having a spare in good condition to use. Unless you get a flat with the spare already on while the other flat tire is in the shop... The reason being, these products gum up the valves and the Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors (the ones that are a part of the valve). I guess as an ABSOLUTE LAST RESORT you could use this if you are stranded but be prepared to pay for the tire shop to clean the residue off the rim, and possibly replace the valve and/or TPMS. Great video explaining how to use this product. Safe driving!

Good to know how to use. Up til now I haven't had a flat but if I do - thanks to your video I should be okay. Cheers

There's a can of fix a flat that says on the bottle that it's tire sensor safe and non-flammable. So get that.

I plan on having a plug kit, and tire inflator in my car at all times, and this as a 3rd backup. No spare tire in my vehicle which is fine, i've only had like 2 flats in my 40 years of driving, and both times already parked at home when I discovered the flat.

You should have a million subscribers. You're a tire god.

The most important part is driving the car after to spread the sealant, if the hole is on the top of the tire and don’t rotate the tire you’ve just wasted your can

[ttaylor]

buying a can that actually works is a bigger gamble than finding a shop that wont fix your tire

I used this stuff on a tire I had a nail puncture in and I had a plug put into which was very close to the sidewall. The plug was OK for about six months but after that it began losing air again. I would have to put 10 psi in it every two/three weeks. Since it was such a small leak, I decided I had nothing to lose trying this to plug the small leak. It's been well over a year and it's still holding.

Used these types of sealer several times and fix lasted years. If the tyre holds pressure leave well alone.

what to do after putting sealant in ?
1) go to nearest tyre shop and fill proper air in tyre??
2)patch tyre with real patch??

my Father always insisted that all the females in our family had a can of Fix aFlat in their trunk if they didnt have one he would give them one he had in our garage i like them for stocking Stufferes at Christmas time and i also gave out fire extinguishers as well

[alexmedina]

ok guys he forgot one crucial crucial please everyone watching this video JACK UP THE TIRE FIRST a little bit !!!! to get better results or you will waste the can. you only need to take some of the pressure off the tire it is not necessary to jack it all the way

[IrisMG]

People who sell tires hate this stuff. I love it $15 for a patch is too damn much

[LiberalSoldier]

Valve stem on tire should be at the bottom for best results.

[jasonbrowb]

it works tire places will change attitude if you tell them you will just take it to another place or you talk to a supervisor fix a flat is a common thing for a tire shop to see so is a worthlessness employee that can't find anything else to work at just depends on tire shop if you want a good place just use common sense on where you take it fix a flat has been around for a long time for a reason

A tyre plug kit with a 12 Volt Portable air pump is the best and it's a permanent patch job. Avoid this kinda inflator sealant, it will mess up your
