Tyre Inflation Aerosol

[jazz_hybrid]

We seem to have lost ours!!!!

Where is the best place to get a replacement, and what type should I get?

Thanks

Well, that's a terrible tragedy!!! (are there enough exclamation points? )

I recommend not using it, because most tire shops refuse to repair tires "treated" in this way...

If you really must https://www.halfords.com/tools/garage-equipment/breakdown-essentials/holts-tyreweld-500ml-122260.html there are many places sell tyre sealants but I won't use it I have a full size spare wheel in the boot, much less aggro

Don't!

Get yourself a spare wheel, bag and jack. I did.

There's plenty of room in the boot for it.

It's as if a space was actually made for one.

I carry a full size spare and there is still plenty of space left for luggage. More than my Yaris had in total. 

If you rely just on tyre sealant, I agree  try to avoid using it if possible as they may refuse to repair a puncture if sealant has been used.   You may be able to reach a fitter just by topping up with air. 

Dont forget  they have an expiry date. Some of us may already have an expired canister.  Also check expiry date on any offered for sale.

There is the replacement parts kit for it from a Honda dealer.

All supermarkets have the tyre can small size and large size spray can with
all the fittings, all as I do is carry a foot pump in case of slow puncture if I
was to have a complete blow out I would phone the AA and they put you a spare
on and follow you to nearest tyre fitting shop. I know this as it happened to a
friend of mine only last week.

I got one at Tesco, it was down to half price at a fiver. Holts brand, so should be ok.

Interested to know why you bought a footpump when you have an electric pump supplied with the can of 'gunge'?

Had it years, belonged to my father its 50s or 60s solid brass you could not buy one today of same build
quality, and I'm pretty damn sure I can get more air into a tyre quicker than my neighbours can with their electric
devices without thinking about the battery going flat, made me smile when you said [interested to know why you
bought a foot pump] I think the name on it is Desmo not sure though, my father was in the garage trade and I can
remember him once blowing a lorry tyre up for someone, it fits well in the compartment under the boot floor, I have
a couple of jacks which belonged to my father I do not carry them in the car though.

I think these independent ' Holts' type puncture repair aerosols are  different.  They are typically just an injection of  water and pva glue  which works  well enough to seal a simple 'nail penetration ' puncture. Their  main advantage is the aerosol provides the pressure to inflate the tyre,saving the need for a pump. . This pva is relatively easy to clean off, although some fitters may still refuse to repair treated tyres.

A canister type system injecting via an inflator pump is a much more gloopy sealant. It may be more efficient at sealing more severe punctures  but still has limitations if for instance there is side wall damage.  But its thick internal coating  can obscure the source of the puncture, and is  time consuming to remove.  .

Yes. I should have added the 'why' to my original post.. why I purchased another, when the OEM set up is still in situ. I have always carried a Holts can when out on motorcycle runs, for this very reason. It doesn't fill the tyre with a gunk that hardens and completely fills the tyre, therefore can be cleaned out and the tyre repaired at a later time. Of course, if the hole/damage is too severe then maybe the OEM set up would be a better option... though I would probably try the AA before resorting to the OEM set up.

I noticed that Halfords charge £30 for a   puncture repair  in their workshops  And this assumes its a  permissible repair (ie only within the centre 3/4 of tread width) 

It  may often be the case that a  puncture repair is either not possible or would represent quite a large proportion of the cost of a new tyre..   Particularly with budget tyres and if you allow for the fact that while a tyre with say 5mm tread remaining seems quite new  its already almost half worn out.   So maybe use sealant if it gets you out of trouble.
