> =EF=BF=BD =EF=BF=BD =EF=BF=BD =EF=BF=BD In French and English BIG Red bac=
k and White Letters right on the

I don't give advertising a whole lot of credibility, but I looked up
1,1,1,2, Tetrafluoroethane on Wikipedia, and they say that it's a
replacement for the
older aersosols and refrigerants that contained *chlorine*.

It was the chlorine that was affecting the ozone layer.

A can of Gunk Puncture Sealer cannot contain enough Tetrafluoroethane
to properly inflate a tire, but there is ammonium hydroxide in the mix
and apparently that stuff causes a significant pressure when the tire
heats up a bit from the vehicle being driven slowly.

Also, there is ethylene glycol in the mix, and ethylene glycol will
eat the paint off of the inside of your rims and pit the aluminum,
over a period of time.

So far, I haven't found any kind of tire sealer in a can or bottle
that doesn't have some sort of gotchas...

        Your pretty much right on that, but the hazards are greatly
exaggerated on some items, but then who want to do the Rasp and Plug thing
on the road, when a "Foam" squirt is just as good.

        Sometimes a combination of the slight foam and Rasp Plugs is good
too......
