Thanks for the video, after seeing all these steps using the slime. I decided to skip this step. I'll inflate the tire and drive to the tire shop.

Hello. Good call! I always prefer a patch over slime 👍

Hey Jason, I see the bottle says for off highway passenger vehicles. Has it worked just fine for your car ?

@FastFixYouTube 9 күн бұрын

Hello. That disclaimer is for legal reasons. They dont want to be sued for broken TPMS sensors or people who use it as a permanent fix. If you use it to get from your garage to the repair shop, you’re perfectly fine. However, the TPMS sensor can block the slime from going into the tire. If your car has TPMS (very likely) I wouldn’t bother trying this. Better to remove the wheel and bring to the repair shop. Assuming of course you have a means to get the wheel to the shop. Best of luck and sorry this wasn’t of much help.

Nice video, but it seem like you missed a critical step of spinning the tire (driving a bit) to let the slime distribute.

Good call! Thanks for that 👍👍👍

Will see how it goes on my Michelin tyre, its only a small leak where I have plugged the tyre after removing the screw out of it.

Seems to work well in those situations 👍

I don’t know if I’d go that far…. Maybe replace “smart” with “randomly lucky with ideas.” Haha, thanks for your comment 👍

Did you take the nail or screw out before?

@FastFixYouTube 7 ай бұрын

Yes, remove the object that punctured the tire prior to using the slim 👍

My bike has TPMS. Does it mess it up if I use this green blob?

@FastFixYouTube 3 ай бұрын

Hello. TPMS sensors can actually block tire sealing products, so you may not be able to get the stuff in the tire. I don’t have any direct experience with sealants messing up TPMS sensors, but I’m sure it happens. Thanks for the question and best of luck!

Was reading it says “non highway vehicle.” Any issues from anyone using this for a highway vehicle?

Hello. Remember, this compound is only a temporary fix and shouldn’t be used for extended periods of time. I’d have zero qualms about driving at highway speeds for a short period of time, but the weight of the fluid can affect the wheel balance and cause vibrations or different riding characteristics. Good question and thanks for asking 👍👍

Valve stems are permanently attached to the sensor stems and can not be removed.

Yes, that situation won’t allow the sealant in…. Good call out 👍👍👍

You only need enough to fill the slow leak. I wouldn’t fill more than half a bottle lol

I put only a couple of oz's in my bike tire , works great.

The one-gallon size gives these formulas to calculate the amount needed : for low-speed tires (under 45 mph), width (inches) X height (inches) X 0.12 = Oz. required. In metric, width (cm) X height (cm) X 0.55 = mL required. for high-speed tires (over 45 mph), width (inches) X height (inches) X 0.065 = Oz. required. In metric, width (cm) X height (cm) X 0.30 = mL required.

Your slime went right in. Mine has too much air pressure in the clear tube to squeeze it in. What do I do

@0MrDanilo Ай бұрын

Did you figure this out I have same issue

@FastFixYouTube 15 күн бұрын

Hello. Well, if it’s air pressure that’s holding it back. You could always deflate the tire a little bit and see if that helps. Of course she will need to refill it with air. If you don’t have an air compressor this could be a problem so only take out a little bit of air at a time. However, another thing that could be stopping you is the TPM sensor, that is installed. A lot of the time those get in the way and prohibit the slime from going in. I should’ve mentioned that in the video, but I’m kind of just figuring it out. Pretty annoying the factory limits are ability to fix quickly with the TMS sensor in the way. Best of luck I hope you get your tire fixed!

You obviously got paid by them to post this video, I was expecting to see an actual puncture but u only showed putting it in the tire so no proof here of it working/ just how to use it

I wish my friend! However, I’m not cool enough yet. I was not paid to create this video. Maybe some day 🤷‍♂️
