    I followed your instructions, used FixaFlat for a Honda CR-V rear tire, and the leak was sealed. Next, I'll have to see how long the fix works. Thanks for the advice.

      it should last the lifetime of the tire.

    This does indeed work, I have used it over the years a bunch of times. Be mindful however that valves usually don't like this stuff and repressurizing after the glue has hardened might be a problem. Many times at the gas station air compressor, it will pressurize the tire but the machine will have problems reading the tire pressure.

    so if I did find a small nail/piece of scrap metal causing a slow leak, is it more worth replacing the entire tire or plugging it up?

    • @HelpingHermit
      @HelpingHermit  Місяць тому

      fix a flat is usually from a small leak inside the tire. You could try both the plug and the fixaflat at the same time. Put the plug in first, then do the fix a flat However do so at your own risk, because a hole from the outside is more risky.

    Hello, I have a question. What does it mean when the fix a flat isn’t going inside of the tire? Instead it’s just making a mess everywhere. Am I doing something wrong? I follow the directions and it’s not going inside of my tire 🥺

    • @HelpingHermit
      @HelpingHermit  Рік тому +4

      are you sure you have it tighten really well. Its normal for some to spew out. maybe you have too much air in it. Try to remove some air from it.

      @@HelpingHermit hi! Yes I had it on tightly. and actually you just made me think of something, because I did have a lot of air in my tire, I had filled it up like 2 hours prior. I’m assuming it didn’t have enough room to get inside. When it starts to deflate I will try it again. Thankyou for responding 💙
