True! :thumbsup: Buggy grip is some strong stuff! :freak:
trailranger 12-28-2007, 09:35 PM I heard "Soy Gel" really softens tires, make them look like crayons on hot payment...
420 Tech R/C 12-28-2007, 11:14 PM a freind of mine recently tried using absorbine Jr. because of the similar smell to buggy grip , and beleive it or not he now swears by it for running on hard packed clay!!!

Not the best stuff to smell but it works and drys fast.
I'm not sure what the MSDS is for the stuff but I would be careful.
A toothbrush makes a good applicator.
Goof Off is the most popular at our indoor off road track.

I'll give it a try and the PB Blaster I use both in my garage and have both the GOOF OFF is some WICKED stuff! My daughter got ahold of some BLUE model paint,it went through our new clothes dryer. Looked like sombody put a handfull of crayons in the dryer. 2 hours later and a lot of scrubbing it took ALL of the paint out of the dryer.I think it should soften the rubber.Thanks for the info.
BadSign 01-09-2008, 12:49 PM Trinity Zip Free is very popular at the clay track I race. Really softens the rubber (much more than buggy grip) without repelling the moisture in the clay, like WD-40 and some other solvents.
