FAQs
How long does the temporary repair last?
The RAC Emergency Tyre Sealant provides a temporary fix to allow you to reach a safe location or repair facility. It is not a permanent solution and requires professional inspection and repair as soon as possible.
Can this sealant be used on motorcycle or bicycle tyres?
No, this specific RAC Emergency Tyre Sealant is formulated and approved for car tyres only.
What is the maximum size puncture this can seal?
This sealant is designed to seal punctures up to 6mm in diameter.
Do I need any tools to use this product?
No, the product is designed to seal punctures without the need for a jack or other tools.
What should I do after using the tyre sealant?
After applying the sealant and re-inflating the tyre, drive slowly for a few miles to allow the sealant to work. Then, proceed directly to a tyre professional for inspection and a permanent repair.
Can I use this sealant if my tyre has a slow leak?
While it can help with slow leaks from small punctures, it's primarily intended for more immediate puncture events. For slow leaks, it's still best to have the tyre professionally inspected.
Does the sealant contain latex?
No, this is an advanced, latex-free formula.
Troubleshooting
Tyre does not inflate after application.
Ensure the can was shaken vigorously and the nozzle is securely attached to the valve. Check that the valve core is intact and not blocked. Verify there are no major leaks that the sealant cannot handle.
Sealant appears to be leaking from the puncture site.
The puncture may be larger than 6mm or located on the tyre sidewall, which this sealant cannot effectively repair. Drive slowly to the nearest service station and seek professional assistance immediately.
Tyre pressure drops rapidly after initial inflation.
This could indicate a larger puncture or multiple punctures. Drive cautiously to a repair facility. It's recommended to avoid using the sealant for sidewall damage.
