"Fix-a-Flat"  It works good,  when you have a flat and do not have the time
or energy to change the tire.  However, do not breathe the stuff!!  Last
week I had a can of Fix-a-Flat under the seat of my 78 Chevy Pickup, ( It
says on the can 'do not store inside of your car'........too bad I didn't
read it.)  That can blew up when the seat was adjusted and  it was ran over
by the seat track.  I drove the truck for a couple of days after, but the
smell was so strong I could no longer stand it, so I attempted to clean it
out.  I removed the seat, and was hit with a rush of the rather toxic fumes.
Right away I became light headed, lost my ballance and fell into the door
jamb of the truck, slicing my face open. ( Lots of Blood)  When I got up , I
took a quick break, cleaned up my face, then went back to cleaning out the
truck.  The remainder of the day, I was dizzy, and my sight was clouded.
That evening, Angie ended up taking me to the Emergency Room, where I spent
several hours wired  like a surround sound system, and on 100% Oxygen.
Since then, I have been pretty sick for several days.  So in conclusion, I
reccomend that if you have this product in your car or truck, DO NOT keep it
inside of your vehicle!!!!  I learned the hard way.  Hopefully, my idiocy
can help someone else out there.

PS  I still carry a can of Fix-a-Flat in my truck, but now it is in a sealed
container, in a much  safer place!!
(It took a lot to admit my mistake to you all , but I was hoping some good
could come from this.)
