Product Information

Most of the products we evaluated claim to seal punctures up to 6 mm in diameter, though others have no specific claim. Product tests were performed on new tires with a 5.8-mm diameter nail puncture that caused the tire to go flat. We then attempted to seal the puncture, following the product directions.

If you’ve got a new-ish car, it might have a puncture repair kit instead of a spare tyre to change. A repair kit uses tyre sealant and a compressor to repair the hole in the tyre. Slime have been experts in puncture sealants for over thirty years, and their Smart Tyre Puncture Repair Kit is ideal if you’re faced with a flat tyre – it’ll seal the puncture so that you can safely travel to your local Halfords garage to get it repaired. Getting a puncture How do I know if I’ve got a puncture? If your tyre is suitable to be repaired, you can book our Puncture Repair service at your nearest Halfords garage to get you moving safely again. If you can’t get to a garage, or just want the convenience of not having to leave your house, let us come to you. Our Halfords Mobile Experts can repair your tyre at home or at work, at a time to suit you. A puncture repair kit is designed to be used post-puncture - it can temporarily repair a hole after your tyre’s been punctured. A flat tyre is usually easy to spot with your eyes, but what if you’re driving? Well, there are a few warning signs to look out for to alert you to a punctured tyre while you’re on the move. These include:It’s also worth noting that it’s recommended that you replace tyres in pairs, as you’re more likely to maintain even wear and ensure a smoother and safer driving experience. So, if you’ve got another tyre that’s looking worse for wear or is nearing the end of its life, it might be worth replacing the two together. They’re completely safe, thanks to the reinforced sidewall that is still able to support the weight of your vehicle even after the tyre has deflated, without further damaging your wheels or compromising your safety. All run-flat tyres come with manufacturer’s guidelines as to how many miles and at what speed you can drive once you’ve got a puncture, so be sure to consult this first. Considering that this car tyre sealant is relatively cheap, made in the UK and developed by the RAC, you cannot go wrong. It’s far cheaper than a replacement at a main dealer and its perfect to keep stored in your car for emergency use. The risk with pre-puncture sealants is that you may not notice if you ever do get a puncture. They’re designed to work almost instantly, so you might not realise that the sealant has been activated.

Using your favorite tire inflator, air up the tire to the manufacturer’s recommended air pressure. You can find this measurement on a label typically located on the inside door jamb of the driver or passenger seat. Dial display gauge is integrated right into the inflator, so you can monitor tyre pressure as you inflate
