FiberFix Extreme Gel By J-B Weld
Leete Etheridge, Columbus, Texas: “I had a big cut on the face of a tractor tire, located between the treads. Local tire repair places said there was nothing to be done. So, I figured I had nothing to lose. I squirted carb cleaner into the gouge to clean it out and then put a glob of FiberFix Extreme Gel by J-B Weld into it. Then I wrapped a come-along around the tire, placing a 2 by 6-in. brass pin across the gouge to compress the edges of the cut together as I tightened it up. I had to keep pounding on the pin because it rolled while I tightened. I let that sit for 24 hrs. Since I made the repair, I’ve used the tractor to haul 30 cords of wood and to do other work. I looked at the cut the other day and you can hardly see where it was. Problem solved.”
