Every thinking person knows, tli.t, unless treated with car© and tion, the modern pneumatic motor tyie has a comparatively frail and short life. Many thousands of tyres aie thrown on the .scrap heap annually, whereas, if treated witn car© and the small cuts are Vulcanized in. their initial stages, Thousands of Pounds can lie saved. A perfectly successful remedy nes m Vulcanizing when carried out in a PROPER. MANNER by expert \ and careful tradesmen, using modern tp-to-date plant and materials. Tho mischief originates in a smaM tiend cut; water, stones and grit rorce their way to the foundation of the tyre, the' canvas casing begins to lot, and premature destruction results. This disastrous sequence is prevented bv the HARVEY FROST VULCANIZING PROCESS (British). The detective rubber’fts replaced by new, which unites inseparably with the surrounding material and completely restores the Original Strength, Resilience and Waternroofness to the tyre. P By the use of the HARVEY FROST Appliances, Materials and Methods wie damaged parts of Tubes and Covers me 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 iibbons at one point by a bad burst, can, if otherwise in good condition, be- restored by inserting a complete uw section ItV the HARVEY FROSi “JOINTLESS” Tube Joining Process. Burst Covers can be saved by tno HARVEY FROST Stepping Out Process which removes tho damaged canvas and rebuilds with new at the point of injury- The cost of the repair _ is trifling in comparison with, the mileage gained by giving a fresh lease of li?e to a tyre which would otherwise have been discarded. THE TIMARU RUBBER CO., opposite Theatre Royal, Stafford Street, Timaru, has an up-to-date workshop, fitted with a complete new HARVEY FROST VULCANIZING PLANT, capable of coping with all classes of modern Tyre Surgery. _ The workshop is in charge of an experienced tradesman, and motorists are cordially invited to come along and see the work and plant in actual operartion. The Company makes no secret 1 of its methods, and a personal visit will not only be welcomed but will give He motorist an insight into the interesting and instructive process of Modern, Scientific Vulcanizing.
