Default Tire repair question

The aerosol can you're thinking of is Fix-A-Flat. Don't EVER use that
unless you absolutely have to. And if you do, make damn sure you tell
anyone who works on the tire that it's full of that crap. A co-worker
popped the bead on a tire full of that and got it in hit eyes. Damn
near blinded him (yeah, should have been wearing goggles).


I don't get it. Hadn't he drained the tire of air before he tried to
separate the bead? I've never seen anyone do otherwise. They remove
the valve.
