Attention
AUTOMOBILE OWNERS!
It is an absolute fact that water will rot cotton*
An automobile tire is made of several plies of cotton fabric cut on the bias, and
cemented together, then the rubber tread, sides and heads T'e tden put on and vulcan
ized. When there is a cut or snag in the tread or side walls of a tire it allows water
and sand to enter, and the sand with its sharp cutting edges separates the fabric and
tread when water seeps in the fabric begins to decay.
I now have in my shop a complete Meam Vulcanizing Plant and can make any kind
of repairs on any size tires from 2 1-2 to 5 inches Don’t think because you have a
tire that is tread cut, rim cut, or has an ugly biowaut in it that it is ready for the junk
pile. Briny it to me and I will vulcanize it at a minimum cost. Also tubes that have
been blown out be.ond patching, I splice them by pulling in new pieces and make them
good as new. I use nothing in my repairs but toe best grade of rubber and fabric, and
every job i do is absolutely guaranteed to last as long as any otier part of the tire.
Give me a trial arid I will prcve to you that I ca.i save you money by repairing
your tires, and wait a while longer to buy new ones.
