I want to share my mistakes and let you learn from them. Let you tap on my experience
Tried to seal a puncture on my inner tube by using a sealant foam/spray from a can i bought on the high street retaiers (one of the 1 pound shops). The idea is simple, you get a small pressurized can with an adapter; then you attach the adapater to the tyre and depress the button on the can - voila - in 5-10secs the tyre is both pumped up automatically and the puncture is sealed (temporarily).
Mistake: something happens but the tyre after 4hours was flat again, the ventil was leaking white foam, and here comes the mistake - as soon as you tried to pump the tyre up - assuming the pucture is sealed - the foam comes into my pump hose and I might need a new pump hose - i didn't expect this!
Learning: don't try and pump up your tyre after it is being filled with this temporary foam sealant
Learning: tyre is not permanently sealed (exactly as the manufactures says)
