Tire Shine sling mistake.

Sounds like you have figured out the problem, but FWIW.... After I apply Hyper-dressing to my tires, I let it set up, then use a blower to dry the dressing. It blows any build up out of the ribbed sections of the tires and prevents sling.

I might give that a try. I usually use the leaf blower to dry after washing anyway. Good Tip. Thank You

If you guys see this I think the code Snippet for the NXT Tire Cleaner must need fixing. It does not display a pic.

I just fixed it in here by correcting to :

One of you guys might want to edit the Code Snippets link. I just found Chris's link for reporting errors, I'll submit to him.

When you apply Hyper Dressing onto the tyres, do you guys face the problem of HD dripping all over the place? Each time I spray HD on the tyres, it will drip all over the rims

I don;t spray directly onto the tires. I spray onto an Eagle One Tire Swipe then Apply. I get no immediate Dripping but do get some sling if I don;t do a good job of pulling off the residue from around the raised lettering.

Once I apply it I wait a while then Go back over the same tire without reapplying product to applicator. This helps drink up the residue a little. Something else I just started doing is this> I live 1 mile down a side road. I can drive this mile, which has a spped limit set at 30 MPH. I then pulled over at a little parking lot, pulled the tire swipe out and caught the sling before it had a chance to sling off the tire. I then drove about 10 miles to work with no sling issue.

I think the majority of the tire shne products has the possibility of dripping and sling. Each seems to have it's own characteristics and can take an application or 2 before getting the hang of it. This seems to be my case anyway.

Thanks Jeff! It will be looked into.
