Machine to apply formula V?
I have seen those tire rotators that spin a set of tires really slow through a treatment liquid. Anyone have any idea where to find one?

Use a large 4 inch paint brush and set the tires in a stack that you can get all the way around them, and put a piece of plastic or a garbage bag under them so that you don't stain the floor, the drippings have dirt or rubber in them and can stain. Start at the top and brush around, working your way to the bottom. Do at least two or three coats, until the tires are saturated and don't look dry up top by the time you get to the bottom. Brushing helps work the juice into the tire. Just dipping it doesn't work as well. Tired both and ended up going back to the brush.
Also it's good to roughen up the tire first with a surfoam file or a heavy wire brush to help it get absorbed. Make sure the tire is free of claq also, otherwise you are just softening the junk on top and it will be gone the first time you start to generate some g's at speed.
