Every thinking person knows, thA, unless treated with car© and consideration, the modern pneumatic motor tyi e has a comparatively frail and short life. Many thousands of tyres aie thrown on the scrap heap annually, whereas, if treated with care and the small cuts are Vulcanized in their initial stages, Thousands of Pounds can be saved. A perfectly successful remedy lies in Vulcanizing when carried out in a PROPER MANNER by expert and careful tradesmen, using modern tp-to-date plant and materials. The mischief originates in a sma'l tread cut; water, stones and grit force their way to the foundation of th© tyre, the canvas casing ’Degins to lot, and premature destruction results. This disastrous sequence is prevented by the HARVEY FROST VULCANIZING PROCESS (British). The. defective 1 rubber Tis replaced by new, which unites inseparably with the surrounding material and completely restores the Original Strength, Resilience and Water-j proofness to the tyre. I By the use of the HARVEY FROST I Appliances, Materials and Methods uiie I f damaged parts of Tubes and Covers me j REMADE, and there is almost no limit to the class of repair that can bo carried out successfully by the HARVEY FROST PROCESS. Tubes that have been reduced to i <bbons at one point by a bad burst, can, if otherwise in good condition, be restored by inserting a complete new section i.v the HARVEY FROST “JOINTLESS” Tu'oe Joining Process. Burst Covers can be saved by tho HARVEY FROST Stepping Out Process which removes tho damaged canvas and rebuilds with new at tho point, of injury. The cost of the repair is trifling in comparison with the mileage gained by giving a fresh lease of life to a tyre which would otherwise have been discarded.
