Malco Tire Mounting and Demounting Lubricant with Applicator, 1 Gallon | Tire Lube for Changing Tires, Improved Bead Seal & Rust Protection for Automotive, Truck, Farm, and Construction Tires

I wish the opening to the bottle was slightly bigger so the applicator could just easily be dipped in the bottle. It fits, but it's tight. It's a good applicator too. just dip the tip in and run it around the edge of your bike tire beads and even the most obstinate beads will snap right on. You only have a couple minutes before it dries out, but it does make cleanup easy and simple, since it won't contaminate a rim brake and just wipes off with soap and water (it works so much better than soapy water for seating a bead) I do a lot of bike tires, and this is probably a lifetime supply. You don't even really need to wash off the applicator between uses. I wish I'd bought this sooner!

I had previously used Dawn dish soap, but this product works much better for mounting and discounting tires on my antique car. It makes a difficult job quite easy. I've done all 6 tires (4 rolling and 2 spares) using this lubricant, and I wouldn't change any more without using this stuff. The supplied applicator is worlds better than the paintbrush I used when I was using dish soap.

Made the tires really easy to mount and seat good product

Was everything it's supposed to be. Showed up in a good amount of time. Can't complain

I have a Honda GL1800 that I bought a new rear tire for (after trying to get a local shop to respond, which they never did). I originally bought a set of tire spoons with this bead lubricant to change the tire manually. I knew it was a long shot. Before even getting those things (along with a balancer tool), I decided to order the Rabaconda tire changing machine. I'm glad I did! Everything went well for tire removal. I used this lubricant during the bead breaking process because it is a bit runny and flowed into the bead seal when pushing down on the bead breaker. Working it into the bead it allowed the bead to break which was NOT happening before I used it. I installed a new T style valve stem that I got from Wing Stuff dotcom to use the FOBO TPMS system and still be able to fill my tires easily, so I changed the valve stems with the tire off. The first bead went on fine for the new tire. However, even with the Rabaconda, that second bead was a bear getting on. The Rabaconda came with a bucket of "bead grease" which is actually good stuff, but it is more sticky than slippery like this lubricant. But on my second attempt I used this lubricant and the tire smoothly mounted for the second bead. Maybe I stretched the tire some in the first attempt, but this lubricant really worked well on the second attempt. I recommend it, even if you use bead grease for other functions in the process.

Like most have stated, this stuff works!!! I have a NoMar motorcycle tire changer and have used their brand of lube but since I've had it for years it's become kind of "yucky". I decided to buy a jug of this Malco tire lube and, with the lube and applicator stick, so much easier and cleaner to apply in the tire bead! And...it works great!!! Suggestion - get a secure cup container (where it won't fall over because this lube is thick and when you pull the stick out the cup will come with it if not secured) and pour about a coffee cup amount as a little goes a long way! Also, this lube will evaporate after a day so if you have too much in your container try to pour the remaining not used back into the Malco bottle, if possible, or you're going to not have it after a day! Great stuff to have when you need to change a tire and would definitely recommend! The price is fair for what it does!

Had a little bit of trouble getting the dobber through the hole. I was not sure if I was supposed to use a decanter for this item. However, when I did, this stuff is super slippery. I don’t have any other tire lube to compare it to but it made the tire/rim slide together like high school prom night. On the downside, it made the tire spoons also very slippery and difficult to hold onto, also like high school prom night.

Really thick and slimy but works well and drys up without any gooey stickiness.

Very slippery and effective when breaking tyre beads, this makes a huge difference. I mix it with water 50/50 in a spray bottle for easier application, works fantastic.
