Does this work or am I just giving myself a reason to mop my garage floor?

 

[grnmnstr]

I've always done it. It works for me.

 

[90Notchlx]

Yup it works.

 

[Greg2]

I use to use Joy but stopped about 4/5 yrs ago when my Hoosier tire supplier told me I didn't need to use it anymore, that Hoosiers didn't leak thru the side walls anymore. My 16X33 have been fine. I also got a set of 16.5X33 M/T slicks from a guy that were test tires with 5 or 6 passes on them. I put almost 90 passes on them, they were dry and never leaked either. So maybe ask your tire mfg if you need to use it today with your type and size slicks. RM

I'm running MT 28x10.5 stiff and my old ones leaked down pretty quick, so I thought I would try it one my new ones.

Yes

Liberally. Rag, sponge. Works for me.

MY MT's leak fast as well, they were mounted when I bought the car. Dish soap for me if they ever get broken down.

You'll find when you speak with tire engineers they will advise against using soap on the inside of tires -- claim it actually breaks down the rubber due to certain components within the soap.

However, a lot do without any problems except for those annoying bubbles on moist days.......

I've done it on all of mine and they don't leak. I also don't get an bubbles when it's moist out or when I wash it. It is a great lubricant to get them on and also becomes kind of tacky once they dry out. So far my D/R haven't slipped without screws on a 1.35 60 foot, so I will continue to use Dawn until someone shows me in person something better.
