theotherside Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 Hi guys and girls.. awsome site you have here. I was just flicking through the net and came across a few posts that was put up regarding questions about white wall tires. Thought i might be able to help you out. Any colour applied to a tire can have its limits. Though there are a few things you can do to make them last as long as possible. try and minimalise the amount of tire shine you apply to your tires. This affects the adhesion of the colour and tends to want to draw the colour out of the tire into the white, red, what ever you have put on there. Wash your tires down with a good quality washing up deturgent that leaves your tires clean.Not a car wash as that has wax in it which also attracts dust the same as any tire shine will. this obviously discolours your tires making the colour look dull. Always use a white wall applier( business ) that knows what they are talking about. Players just see the dollars and don't offer any help after the job has been done. After years in the industry i have contacts all over Australia that i can pass on details so you get the best chance of your tires lasting as long as they can. In turn i can also help out if people wish to start up their own business it is a good little money earner and helps with getting out and seeing what new and old projects are on the road. Excellent networking means. if you have any questions about anything above feel free to hang me a line Quote
Rolla Boy Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 Also, getting walls done on brand new tyres won't last as long due to the new rubber and the crap in it... And I never use tyre shine on mine... Quote
