Can excess water inside a tire dilute the sealant and make it ineffective?
Answer Yes. Water vapor can be injected into a tire from unfiltered air compressors, or through major leaks in the bead area of a tire that is already flat.No-Flat does have a water dispersing agent in its formulation. However, if excess water is in the tire it will dilute the sealant and make it ineffective. The best way to insure water is not being injected into tires, is to empty (bleed) the air line of the compressor by blowing air through the line before attaching it to the valve stem of the tire. If white liquid is noticed leaking from a puncture after the tire has been rotated several times, and air is continuing to leak out of the tire, more than likely the tire has had water or some other type of sealant or ballast in it previous to the No-Flat treatment. If this happens, you must remove the tire from the rim, rinse it out with water, dry it, remount it, and retreat with No-Flat.
