Slow Puncture - Any harm in trying tyreweld?

Hey everyone, I've got a slow puncture on a tyre and have a couple of cans of Holts Tyreweld in the boot. I was wondering if there's any harm or damage to be done in trying to fix it with tyreweld even though it recommends it as a temporary/100 mile solution only.

Cheers both. The puncture is so slow, or only deflates from hard bumps, I thought what's the harm in trying but yeah better option is get it looked at!

Ended up just getting the puncture fixed despite planning to replace tyres soon anyway. £30 for peace of mind for some long journeys coming up ain't bad

Ha so either the Kwikfit repair failed or I got another puncture whilst I was 80 miles from home! Luckily the tyre held air well enough to get home but annoying all the same. Needed new tyres soon anyway so just going to do that before another trip.
