What a true professional in every way! I appreciate you taking the time to make these videos.
Thank you Adam. I actually like Gluing my tires. This will be a different experience because I've only done 1/10 buggy tires. This should be fun. Great tip on the Inserts to wheel.
Really enjoy these in depth how to vids. I’m still honing my skills at tire glueing. My first set of JConcepts tires had an unbelievable amount of brown gunk come off the tire. Good to know that is being changed. I have all the prep figured out. Now it’s about getting the right amount of glue. I tend to use to much.
Thank you!
This was a great refresher for me. I haven’t glued tires in a long time. I’ve been purchasing pre mounts, and it really limits what tires you can purchase. I just bought some new j concept reflex tires for my Truggy, and stalkers for my buggy. Can’t wait to glue em up and hit the track. Thanks Adam!
Hi Adam. Rookie here😅 im learning to glueing the tyres thanks to you. Too many tips to glue a tyre, too many tips to help ppl. Still doing videos like that please. Cheers!
I like that you don't say that there is only 1 right way. Thank you for multiple ways of doing the job right and its more important that you find a method that works best for you
Appreciate it, thank you!
Thanks for getting so in-depth on this. I feel like I have gluing my 1:10 scale tires down to a science but man my latest 1:8 tire gluing was a disaster. Picked up some nice pointers here and some good insight on gluing inserts vs not.
Super helpful! Thanks as always for these videos, they’re great.
Thanks dude. Just started racing at SS. Good times!
Thank you!
@@AdamDrake just realized I totally commented on the wrong video lol. Thanks for this one though. Helpful as always.
Walmart sells $15 rolls of microfiber towels where you get around 70 towels per roll, they tear off exactly like paper towels, Amazing product!
Thank you
Adam great video to watch for a refresher!
My pleasure, thank you.
Lots of useful information, Thanks for sharring all that.
Thank you!
My man knows his stuff.
Great detailed info ! Thats helped a lot !
Your really a good tutor. Can you explain in a different video the reason why you punch 2 or 4 holes . Why some puck the sides and why. I'm new to rc and I'd like to know. If possible. Thanks for the video really appreciate it 😊
My pleasure, thank you very much!
Always good info Adam.. much appreciated! But for clarity, can you explain why/when it may be idea to glue the insert to the wheel for more side traction. I guess what I'm asking, when is it more beneficial to have more side traction oppose to forward (unglued insert) traction?
Just depends on what you need, but in most conditions I don't glue the inserts to the wheel. I have another video on glued inserts.
Thanks Adam. Good info!
You bet!
Thanks for the info Adam! My biggest problem with gluing tires at the moment is I can not find tires in stock anywhere!! Been try to get a set of green reflex (among other brands) for months now. Is there a massive tire shortage right now?? Enjoy your videos, keep em coming sir✌️
I think it's because RC is booming at the moment and the demand is very high.
Always great advice
Thank you!
Which setting on the hole punch do you use? Great video!
3mm
hey mate..great job..keep it up champ🏆👌
i have also jconcept truggy wheels 1/8 for my tekno et.
i see you have holes on the tires (i have also on my arrma wheels).
to the truggy tires i need also holes.??
thanks
I prefer to put a couple of holes in the tires instead of in the wheels.
I clean the rims with simple green as well
Nice.
I like to also clean the wheels with simple green
Not a bad idea.
So you can store the glue in the fridge without a cap? Won't the air dry out the glue? I know you can revive the glue using Acitone, but I would like to avoid that all together.
I store it with the cap inside the fridge.
What about balancing? I noticed that with every set I've bought, the tires/wheels are not balanced, so I spin the tire on the wheel until it's close as possible before gluing, I've never tried to balance beyond that, I'm assuming you could remove some material from the inside of the wheel, and maybe go as far as having all four weigh the same?
he has a video on balancing tires
I have a balancing video.
Do you store the glue with the applicator tip still on it wide open? Or do you remove the shrink wrap an put the cap back on?
What are the benefits of punching the tire versus drilling the rim?
I prefer venting the tires and not the wheels with the newer close cell foam inserts. When you put the hole in the wheel it allows dirt into the tire and it’s not able to escape unless you have a hole in the tire for it to escape.
Does simple green leave a film residue on the tire?
It's a degreaser and works great.
Have you ever tried punching holes in the foam inserts? And do you ever drill holes in the wheel?
The bands help hold the tires inlace and increase the glue bond.
Hi there! Greetings from UK.
Any benefits in glueing only the front inserts? It would be nice to get the best of both worlds!
I haven't done that myself, but worth testing.
Cleaning the glue off works better with fluffy hotel towels.
Great tip!
I used acetone nail polish remover
How do I get the drake mat? Want one for Beasts work area.
Hi Adam, question for you how does someone get into Nitro RC Racing? Do you have to have a pit crew or does the event have people do the pit? Thanks man help up the good work.
Usually guy will just help each other out or team up with someone who's running a different class.
Hey mate thanks for these tutorials. Where do you get the blue towel from? I searched amain’s website but didn’t see it. We don’t really have that type of stronger towel in Australia so I’ll have to buy it online
bunnings will have em
@@jrizzy6030 nah they only have chux or microfibre towels
Here we get them at Walmart or an auto parts store.
They are called shop towels by Scott’s.
Why did you mangle the first set of tyres?
🤷♂️
What size of punch do you use for the holes on the tire
3mm to 3.5mm
How's the proline tire glue?
It works well.
This is exactly why I get premounted wheels
:)
Do you have to punch a hole?... I glued up 4 sets and totally missed the hole punch😡
Yes, you should always punch holes and can do it after mounting if you forgot before mounting.
I was taught to never get CA glue on the foam because it would destroy it faster.
The newer closed cell inserts are very durable.
Flex Super Glue
Very nice!
@@AdamDrake it's crazy strong and bonds instantly
Can you activate the subtitles in Spanish?
Let me look into that. I'm not sure how that works.
@@AdamDrake thanks!
Heat shrink bro… heat shrink
lmao i just jam it full of kraft glue and then glob it all around the rim
Haha
I’m honestly getting out of the hobby because of glueing tires. 75% go in the garbage
It’s not that hard!
no links in the description, no mention of what glue. thumbs down
He said pro line medium or flash point thin is what he uses did you not watch it? 🤔
