FAQs

How long does the repair last?

The Ring RTS5 provides a temporary repair designed to help you get to a repair shop. It is not a permanent solution and the tire should be professionally inspected and repaired or replaced as soon as possible.

Can I use this on a motorcycle tire?

This product is specifically designed for car tires. Motorcycle tires may have different pressure and structural requirements, so it is not recommended for use on motorcycles.

What size tires can this sealant be used on?

It is suitable for car tires up to and including 16 inches in diameter. For larger tires, you may need to use more than one aerosol can.

What types of punctures will this NOT fix?

This product will not repair tires that have come off the rim, are ripped, have punctures larger than 5 mm, or have damaged walls.

Do I need any tools to use this product?

No, the Ring RTS5 is designed for a tool-free application. You do not need a jack, spare tire, or other tools to use it.

Is this product safe for all types of car tires?

It is designed for use on tubeless tires only. It is not suitable for tubed tires.

What should I do after using the tire sealant?

After applying the sealant, drive slowly for a few miles to distribute it. Then, proceed directly to a tire repair professional for inspection and a permanent fix.

Troubleshooting

Sealant not entering the tire

Ensure the can is shaken well and the nozzle is screwed on tightly to the valve. Check that the tire is not completely flat and has some air pressure remaining, or that the puncture is not too large.

Tire does not inflate sufficiently

Confirm that the can is fully discharged. For larger tires or significant air loss, a second can might be required. Ensure the puncture is not too large or in the sidewall.

Tire deflates again after initial use

The seal may not have been effective, or the puncture is larger than the product can handle. The product provides a temporary fix; drive to a professional for inspection and repair immediately.
