Cab Corners, Running Board Flex Seal White Wall Tires Update | Sunday Driver 

Thank you very very much for your experiment and posting thorough video documentation. I’m goofing around, I wanna make my Cub Cadet lawnmower into a “rat rod” lawnmower. I thought it would be fun to do white walls and since they’re going to get all stained with grass anyhow this might be good enough for me. Thank you very much and thank your dad for an incredible brilliant idea.

My brother and I did this with the white wall tires what's happening is the flex seal is actually absorbing the black from the tire underneath it

I watched the other video, and it occurs to me that you should have done this in warmer weather. Also using a primer coat of flexseal clear might prevent some of the brown carbon bleed through. Allowing the flexseal to properly cure will likely give you superior results. Just Sayin'

I love it. It’s your truck do it the way you want, it’s awesome making what you have available work.

Thanks for the follow up on the white wall tyres

Thanks for the flex-seal update. I won't bother doing my m/cycle tires. I'm going to try those ring type, that are held on by the bead.

I believe that the tire material leaches oils and the worn look is actually the oils coming out from behind the white paint.

Sly is also left handed! Imagine that!

I think they actually look more appropriate on that truck, they look old. And the dirt shows more when you have such a huge sidewall of course, a narrower whitewall would be less dramatic. That's the beauty of this, you can make whatever you want. I stuck to period correct, so for example the late 50's is about 2 1/4" whereas early 50's/40's would be wider.

Bulldog primer provides blockage from tire oil bleeding thru sir. I practice doing tire ww alot.

Damnit….!!! Now I have to watch that movie.

if you spray a white interior dye paint over flex seal it will stay white ..flexseal discolors/yellows with the elements

I had tried white wall paint on motorcycle tires. Within days it turned yellow then brown. I think the black of the tire had bled through the white. I saw your Flex Seal video and wondered how it would last. I’m currently fighting with a set of portawalls. Way cheaper than real white walls and they don’t change colors.

Use acetone to clean tires before paint. The mineral spirits is too oily

Hello Nick. Thank you for sharing your video. Just a curious question. Would it be easier to use a bondo body filler to patch up those worn out areas? Very nice Illustration of your work. 👍

Hell I would just keep adding layers of the flex seal. Keep it white fill in any chunks that come out and just makes the tire thicker and more durable lol

Sly is scrapping the Flexseal off the leaky water pump........ FYI tires also have petrolium products in them which leaces out over time it appears as a brownish oily stain. I wonder if a few more coats might help them stay white ?

thing is, white wall tires always needed to be regularily cleaned. Which leaves me wondering what you did, if anything, to keep it clean.

I wonder how well the flex seal would hold up to Wesley’s bleach white

I used gorilla glue spray seal and for me it was peeling , I will try flex seal next time

What if you use flex seal on the tire then use white paint on it how would that work?

That 24/26" hanging from the wall Can't say I've seen that bike before 2005 maybe?

I've tried this a few years ago and it turns out that sunlight actually turns the flex seal brown/yellow

i wonder how well beating that piece of sheet metal would have worked if you beat it into one of those sandbags or bean bags that the metal fab guys use

"Whats he doing with that flat head screwdriver?!"

great vid;

What about some sort of clear vinyl paint?

18min to show me tires?

Maybe sly was prying off the distributor cap?

It ain't pretty but if you are satisfie I am not criticizing your method but I watch a channel on you tube called fitzees fab shop and he has some threat l formation. Thanks for taking time to give us this video

its just a movie your right he not mechanic lol
