The CarPlan Flat Mate is an essential emergency tool for drivers of cars, caravans, camper vans, and trailers, designed to provide a rapid solution to flat tyres without requiring tools or manual wheel changes. It excels as a temporary roadside fix, allowing you to reach a service station or home safely, though it is critical to understand that this product is strictly a temporary repair measure and does not serve as a permanent replacement for a damaged tyre.

No, the 300ml container is designed specifically for tyres 14 inches and under.
No, this is a temporary repair solution only. You must have the tyre inspected or replaced professionally as soon as possible.
While it allows you to drive to a destination, you should have the tyre professionally inspected, as the chemical sealant is temporary.
No, you should drive at a reduced speed after application to ensure the sealant sets correctly.
No, this product is not suitable for tyres with large sidewall damage or if the tyre has been displaced from the rim.
Ensure the tube is screwed fully onto the valve stem and that the seal is tight before releasing the canister.
Check if the damage involves a large sidewall tear or rim displacement, as these are beyond the repair capacity of this product.
Ensure the tyre valve is at the 12 o'clock position and the threads are free from debris before attachment.
Before using the product, ensure your vehicle is parked in a safe, level location away from traffic. Unscrew the valve cap and securely attach the aerosol tube to the valve stem. Press the trigger to release the foam until the tyre reaches the desired pressure. Note that the 300ml size is specifically calibrated for tyres 14 inches and under; using it on significantly larger tyres may result in insufficient inflation. Always store the canister in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. After using this product to reach safety, ensure the tyre is inspected by a professional mechanic immediately to determine if it can be repaired or requires a full replacement.
