Re: [ST] New Tyres

Might as well sand off the chicken strips while you're at it. :) A random
orbital sander might simulate that nice scalloping effect.

agent that is left on the tyres. I take a piece of 120 grit sandpaper and
rough up the surface of the tyre before I ride. I don't try to remove all of
the mould release, but to remove the smooth surface and shine on the tyre.
Makes a BIG difference.
