It'll probably work for awhile. My understaqnding of that stuff is it's just temporary. Not a suitable replacement vs. breaking donw the tire and fixing the tube.

And you would even consider that a safe fix? Fix it properly or be prepared to change a tire on the road. If you don't have a spare, it would be an even costlier event.

Fix a Flat is horrable crap. When you open up a tire after using that stuff it's like a big snot inside.

Many tire shops will put an additional charge to fix a tire if you used fix a flat in it. I know we used too.

I agree. I use a respirator and gloves when i pop one of them open. And yes i do a additional charge. just go get a air tank and fill it up at a station. then when you get a compressor you'll have a tank for emergencies.

It's real nasty stuff. Give the tire guys a break...
