Today I decided to start coating my 26" Airstreaks with Herculiner. My friend Col with his Super Cub is doing it also. We researched it fairly well - there are good reports from the super cub mob on using this stuff successfully so we decided to give it a go. Especially given the price of replacing these tyres given their high price to start with and then conversion to OZ dollars and freight!
I washed the tyres with detergent and water then rinsed them off with fresh water. I then cleaned them with Xylene before brushing on the first coat. I plan on 2-3 coats. Will let you know how it goes.
Hope you like the white walls too!
cheers
