Easy way to get all around your tires.

Flatstoppers Tire Supports Just have to place them so the tire is at the edge, a little more expensive than a 8' 2"x6" cut into 1/4's though.

Yeah, that's not going to happen.

Yeah, that's not going to happen.

I know... sure would be nice though.

Um, lets see how this works out. Flatstoppers for $260.00. Scraps of lumber from leftover home projects for nothing, or even a new 8' 2X6 from your local home center for about $5.00 or $6.00. A savings of over $250 sure would buy a lot of detailing supplies. So when your other half says,,,,,,,,,wow, why are you spending all that money on supplies that you already have, tell them, you saved $250 on the Flatstoppers by using an old piece of lumber.

Brilliant! LOL

Yeah, but remember by the time you've painted the 2x6 flat black and added a nice logo...well now you're up to $ 12.00. So the savings isn't so great, only $ 240-250 ish.

What I always do, is keep my tire shine in a spray bottle. I go around and spray the whole tire, then follow up with a tire shine sponge to wipe the excess. By spraying it instead of wiping it...it tends to get all the nooks as well as the underneath. Unless the tire needs air.

But, if there's ever a time where I forget to spray the tire shine before I finish the paint...this trick can be useful cause I can't spray at that point.

Although, in the past if I did forget. I usually just wipe the tire shine on...then hit the bald spots as the vehicle is being backed out of the shop.

Nice trick!
