Retired Wrencher 5,798 #1 Posted July 8, 2016 Hi What is the name of the paste or liquid you put on your tiers to keep them looking good. I think fills in the crakes in tiers and makes them look flat black. Is it Rye Glide Rule Glide?? I have seen it here posted before. Thanks for any info.

953 nut 60,140 #4 Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) NAPA Ru-GLYDE will soften and condition the rubber. wet the surface, put it in a plastic bag for a day or two; works good. Edited July 8, 2016 by 953 nut 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 16,301 #5 Posted July 8, 2016 I use just plain old black, satin finish, exterior latex paint. I mix it 2 parts water, 1 part paint for general coating. The thicker the mix, the more it fills the cracks. Lots cheaper than the "tire" paint, and according to a friend who used to work for the Goodyear Retread plant here in town, it is essentially the same thing. Latex = rubber. Tires = rubber. No brainer. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is 2 parts water to 1 part paint. It could be 2 ounces of water to 1 ounce of paint, OR 2 buckets of water to 1 bucket of paint. The "part" is any unit of measure as long as it is the same unit for the water AND the paint! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ztnoo 2,300 #8 Posted July 8, 2016 "Tier Blaken". I thought this was a topic in German or Dutch.......... I guess not. Maybe a case of phonetics gone askew? Curious. Translation: Tier = Tire Blaken = Black? Tire Paint??? Ik ben niet helemaal zeker. Ich bin mir nicht ganz sicher. Language.....mankind's eternal problem..... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
