It's a simple fact of life that the majority of people don't have an air compressor in their garage, so getting onto your hands an knees in a garage forecourt becomes a necessity. I generally check my pressures before I leave home, but if they are low then I have to go through the risky process of pumping them up in the forecourt. And this is where the risk of a burnt forehead raises it's ugly head.
So whilst I initially put the word "checking" in my post I meant it it cover the whole process of actually removing the valve cap, checking the pressure, inflating as required and replacing the valve cap.
OK?
