Does anyone know what the tyre inflator that comes in a can is called? (the one you use when you have a flat to re-inflate the tyre and provide a temporary fix)

Is it any good? Where can you get it from?

My wife had a flat the other day and could not change the wheel so had to get the breakdown chaps out - prefer not to have her stood at the side of the road in this day and age if possible, so any advice appreciated.

PS Apologies in advance if this has been discussed before. I did a search but could not find anything.

Cheers

Yes this stuff will get you home but the tyre is then non repairable as the foam cannot be removed from the inside of the tyre and stops any possible repair.Try motorbike dealers as they seem to use it more than car users.
