What is the difference between Flat Seal and other products sold in aerosol cans?
Aerosol products treat tires only after a puncture has occurred. Even then, they offer no more than a temporary seal. The tire will still have to be taken to a repair shop, where it will be broken down, the seal removed, the puncture patched and the tire remounted, all at the customer’s expense. (The average cost for this service is $20 or more.) If the flat tire resulted in damage to the rim or sidewalls, the costs will be even higher. In respect to safety hazard, aerosol products are usually highly flammable. Flat Seal is a preventative installed before the fact, and is nonflammable.
