Fix-A-Flat - Tire Inflator with Hose, 16 oz., Case of 6 (S420-6-C) Review

Fix-A-Flat - Tire Inflator with Hose, 16 oz., Case of 6This product works great from my experience. But depending on the damage, this product will not work on damages particularly if the damage is on the side wall. You will need to rotate the wheel to make sure the solution goes into the puncture. Also, I would imagine that bigger holes will not be fixed by this method.

The main idea is that you do not have to be strong person or such handy man to get going after suffering from a flat tire. You don't need an air pump/compressor as it also pumps some air into the tire. After attaching the can and pumping in the liquid, your tire will be off the ground about a few inches and you can drive 2 to 4 miles carefully to the closest gas station. Then you can have them fixed the tire, or if you don't have the time, you can put some more air to what is recommended and you are good to go.

I have been driving for 17 years now and I had 3 chances to use this product. The last time was last week, when my wife called me that the left rear tire of our Acura MDX was flat. Luckily it was just a couple of blocks away from the house where my wife drop my kids to school bus. Some products you may need to remove (unscrew) something from the valve, this one you don't have to remove anything, it has a built-in tube that you directly attach to the valve.

The whole can is gone in less than a minute. The solution looks like white foam which you can see passing through the clear transparent tube. You can see the tire rises up in just a few seconds after pressing the button. Our tire is big, it raised up the tire a couple of inches from the ground but obviously the rim is off the ground. I then have to used a portable pump to add more air into it. Initially it registered as 12.5 psi. I then pumped more air until it reached around 31 psi. 2 days after, the tire is still good. I am just waiting for my new tire to be delivered and I will replace the tire which anyway is just about close to the end of its life. The label on the can also recommend to have your tire professionally repaired at your earliest convenience.

Cons:
- freezes in cold weather
