Default AirMan question

so after clicking on http://www.activeproducts.com/
i have a question about how it works.

Don't these systems get guk all over the inside of the rim while reparing the tire?
If so, can it be cleaned off?

Obviously, we're all in the same boat where pulling the spare tire would add substantially more storage space.

Ron, I guess your preparing for your Fall Colours trip and looking for extra storage space?

Don't know if the stuff can be cleaned off, but I think the guk will get all over the inside of the rim.

I you plan on staying top up for the drive up and down, you that space to store some stuff, you can get a surprising amount in there...I know, I did it!

PS just don't try dropping the top....did that too

Yeah, I've used that shelf once, haha and wondered why my top only went down halfway... oops. Good storage, a little hard to get too.

Frik, who needs more storage to go to Fall Colour? I'm talking my helmet and a tooth brush!

The sealant is easily washed off by water and will not damage the rim in anyway.

The sealant is made by Dunlop, and is engineered not to damage the tire. This is a far cry from the cans of fix-a-flats.

This is the same system used by BMW, Volkswagen, GM and Daimler Chrysler.

However, if you get a complete blow-out or a sidwall puncture, nothing can save you.

The commercials make me laugh.

BTW, congrats, James. I'd imagine it feels pretty good to see a nationally televised commercial pitching your product.

Hope it's a success for you.

Now get to work on the Psycho Polisher.

Yes, I am the Airman.

Why does the commercial make you laugh? It's true.

Anyhow, it's a great compressor (about 3 times faster than anyother 12V out there) so you can use it just like you do anyother compressor.
