Product Information

Full details

The CarPlan Flat Mate 300mL is designed for motorists who need a quick, tool-free solution to get back on the road after a flat tyre. It is ideal for drivers of cars, caravans, camper vans, and trailers looking for an emergency 'get-you-home' fix; however, it is strictly a temporary measure meant for smaller punctures, and it is not suitable for tyres larger than 14 inches or for damaged tyre walls.

FAQs

Can I use Flat Mate on a 16-inch tyre?

No, this product is designed for tyres 14 inches and under.

How long can I drive with the sealant in my tyre?

This is a temporary get-you-home repair. You should have the tyre professionally repaired or replaced as soon as possible.

What size puncture can this fix?

It is effective for punctures up to 5mm.

Do I need tools to use this?

No, the canister is designed for tool-free, hands-on application.

Should I tell the mechanic that I used this?

Yes, always inform the tyre repairer that you have used a puncture sealant so they can take proper precautions.

Will this work on a sidewall puncture?

No, this product is not effective against sidewall damage.

Troubleshooting

The foam is not entering the tyre.

Ensure the valve is at the top of the wheel and the tube is screwed on tightly to depress the valve pin.

The tyre remains flat after application.

Check for large punctures or sidewall damage, which the sealant cannot repair. Do not attempt to drive if the tyre remains completely flat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, inspect your tyres regularly for embedded debris. The CarPlan Flat Mate is compatible with most standard vehicle tyres sized 14 inches or smaller. It is critical to note that this product is not a substitute for a permanent repair. Store the canister in a cool, dry place inside your vehicle, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, to ensure the chemical sealant remains effective for when you need it most. Check the expiration date on the canister periodically to ensure the pressure is still reliable.
