Not sure how that would work, might be too much of a good thing. The coating has to flex with the tire and I'm sure there's a point where it's too much for it.
I used about 2/3 of this, roller lets you put a coat on in 2 min

I remember that Phil Zinck had BWs that the bed liner was peeling off a few years ago. Timmy did his tires with bed liner 8 or 10 years ago and it has held up great. Remember if it doesn't stick that great then what are you going to do next. I followed Tim's recipe. I sanded them till everything on the surface has a cross hatch pattern on it. I then cleaned then with Xylene till the while rags stayed clean. Then I scuffer then up again and cleaned them again. I rolled on 4 coats 8 hrs apart, you need to stir the can every time you pour some out. So far working great

They did peel some on first quick application with an odd brand of Bedliner. Once following tims procedure and herculiner it worked great until I traded them on a good deal. Would not have traded them except it was another member who gave me a great deal. I love bushwheels but am not flying enough to pay for new ones. They may pay for themselves if an engine out situation arises though. Great product. No slam to bushwheels on their price. I would not pay 100.000 for the best cub in the world either. Thought paying around 20.000 for mine was too much, lol.I did 4 coats

I use quart size, seems just the right size for my 29"Airstreaks. I've never tired, but I've heard the goop doesn't store well once opened.
Do any of you have a copy of the STC for 29s on a PA-12 I could get a copy of?
Anyone?
You missed the part about zylene, sand paper, and a brushI must have done something wrong..., I cleaned the tires real well with soap and water and rinsed "em off and let "em dry. I rolled on the Herculiner and let it cure for about 4 days before I let it off the stands and it looked great! I flew it today and with only 1 take off and landing on pavement, about a third of its gone, and the rest will crumble off if I rub too hard.
I did 4 coats

Prep completed ready to apply first coat. Glenn did you dispose of the roller after each application or where you able to wrap it or freeze it for the next?
