TECH: Tire & Wheel

Cleaning a tire before buffing it for repair work is crucial because it ensures a clean, contaminant-free surface for the repair patch to properly adhere to, maximizing the effectiveness of the repair by removing dirt, debris, and any release agents that could impede adhesion between the tire and the patch; essentially, a clean surface allows for a stronger bond with the repair material. Our Rub-O-Matic is the perfect cleaner to pair with any TECH repairs.

Our team is in the final stretch to raise money for our Pie in the Face Contest. At the end of the contest, the person who raised the least amount of money gets a pie in the face at our Christmas Party. Why are we raising money you ask? Every year our parent company TRC sponsors the Columbus Jingle Bell Run & Tech participates by putting together a team and fundraising to help find a cure for arthritis; the # 1 cause of disability in America. All funds raised go to the Arthritis Foundation. It's coming down to the final countdown... and it's between Mike & Clay. The person who raises the least amount of money between now and Dec 6th gets the pie. You can donate using this link and in the message box you can write in who you are donating towards. Help our team reach their goals and see one of these guys get a pie in the face! https://bit.ly/40Zpdku

Throwback Thursday: Check out these vintage ordering cards that our distributors used once upon a time for their customers. We first started using distributors in the 1960's and they were a critical aspect of TECH going nationwide. We now have distributors all over the US, Canada, and around the world. Professionals world-wide trust Tech for their repairs.

We saw some really cool vehicles that were ready for off-road adventures when we were at SEMA. Let's see your rigs! Drop a photo in the comments or DM us and tell us about the last adventure you had!

A distributor picked this little gem up at an estate sale recently. We're estimating that this is from the 1950's or 1940's since our first product was a fishing lure and this box has a fisherman on it.
