I have use laundry soap for the past 50 years... Saw the discussion on "tire soap" over the summer and bought this 2 months ago.. I have done 6 tires since then.. Makes it VERY easy to mount them, dismount them, and seal the bead as you blow up.. IM AMAZED !! ... Wish i had done it 50 years ago !  ------------- Like them all, but love the "B"s. |

Just keep the bucket lid sealed when not in use as it seems to react to air and other things of setting open . Son had a 5 gallon bucket and keeps lid on as well as a plastic cover over the product inside the pail ------------- Faith isn't a jump in the dark. It is a walk in the light.

I wouldn't ever go back either. I even use that stuff for things like slipping new rubber shift boots down the shifter lever, too. Just a small smear and they slide right down. I have a gallon jug of concentrate, so not sure if it's different enough from yours... but I did note on the back it says to not let it freeze, so check for that. I bring it into the house in the winter. ------------- 1939 B, 1940 B, 1941 WC, 1951 WD, 1952 CA, 1956 WD-45 |

yea, for those that are not familiar with this, the "bucket" version is not a liquid. I is somewhat thicker... Semi solid .... a cross between peanut butter and Snot..  ------------- Like them all, but love the "B"s. |
