In this episode I show you how I used Flex Seal to make white walls on my 1954 Chevy truck tires.

The hero we needed, been wanting white walls for some time and even debated painting them on there but never bothered bc, well paint. But flexseal, never would've thought of it! Awesome, thanks for the inspiration and the knowledge!

Other whitewall tire videos mention about heating the rubber with a hairdryer to open the pores of the rubber and thus provide better adhesion. Also cleaning with a rubber specific cleaner (i.e. Rema brand) or sanding the surface would help too.

I've done many of my motorcycle tires. I paint it on lying the tire flat using a paint brush or paint pad. The Flex Seal will smooth itself out. Lettimg it dry for an hour like that, then turn the tire over and do the other side. Baking in the sun or a hair dryer will speed up the drying. Spraying from a can like this and masking gives a nice edge. My motorcycles are old and not show bikes. I wash the tires, then Simple Green, then sand lightly. They will clean up like new with Bleech White whitewall cleaner and a soft nylon scub brush, but not too aggressive with the dcub brush. Thanks for posting.

What's you're experience with the color turning brown or yellow over time? I want to do some new motorcycle tires.

The crazy this when you do this on a modern tire, it instantly looks vintage, even with lettering on it etc. Beats paying $1500 plus for whitewalls out of the states.

Andover MN here, I did this to my Corvettes tire lettering a few years ago, just finally started to notice a slightly offwhite color. Going on 3rd year now, think I'll just do a touch up coat but it's amazing how good it holds up even with heat cycles on and off the track.

Now that your wheels and tires are all fancy, it's time to address the paint. Scrub the whole truck with undiluted CLR and a green scotchbrite. Let it dry, then rub a THIN coat of boiled linseed oil over all the metal. Gotta do it in the summer when it's warm.
