Gluing your own tyres again... but better than before

There is always a chance to keep learning. This tip was given to me by a viewer with many years of top level slot car experience. I tried out the tip and was so impressed I wanted to share it with everyone. As always I have included some new tips of my own.

Nice tip. I just may start mounting my own tires from now on. I do hope you do a part II with these showing the Truing and triming so I can learn how to clean up the extra glue around the hubs to make them nicer looking.

[@CleaveTech]

Glad you liked it. You really should mount your own tyres. It is easy and can save you a lot of money! Check out this video for how to trim and true your tyres… kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4ekgKF6mqqYnMU

Thanks for the good explanation! I learned how to make slot tires! Congratulations!

[@CleaveTech]

Thank you for watching 🙏

Nice !

[@minipaintingforyou]

Care to make that intro a little less ear shattering for headphone users? Thank you for your tips!

[@CleaveTech]

Haha, seems to have made a good point. 👍🏻. I will try and reduce the sound level on the intro in future videos. Be patient as it may not be immediate as I have a few scheduled videos to come.

[@minipaintingforyou]

@@CleaveTech thank you

Super glue is really good for rubber. And a whole lot cheaper.

[@CleaveTech]

It is quite hard to slide the donut onto the rim when using superglue. It tends to grab straight away and doesn’t slide on. Superglue can be used around the edges of the rubber starts to tear away.

Iv been using glue gotten from Attan, this 3M "80" can looks interessing.. i might try get hold of one and tryout. Although iv been quite satify with the glue iv been using. It bit tick.. but i just mix it up with some thinner to make it more watery. other than that, im using same technique as you. *thumb up*

[@CleaveTech]

I have tried all sorts of glue in the past but this 3M 80 stuff is just easy to use and doesn’t make a mess.

[@eugene4154]

Please advise what foam you used for tyres, what density are they, my trials were ok but just dont last long

[@waynethomas3781]

[@danielmedina8262]

Hello, how are you? There is some possibility that you will send me the value of the glue and the value of the shipment (of course without any commitment.) and I will make you a money order, or a bank transfer. ? the truth that I would love. Here we use a glue, which is not good enough, nor is it not as effective. to name one, two or three we use. UHU. From already thank you very much.

[@CleaveTech]

Send me an email [e-mail] and we can discuss buying and shipping 👍🏻
