The old Paragon FX, it was formulated to be used on foam tires it's also was a kind of watered down version of their original Ground Effects which was much better. I have never tried any thing on my crawling tires, and quite frankly I hope we don't have to get into it, it's just one more thing. I've found the best way to improve a tire with the wrong compound is sell it.

I was just going to say ..........Simple Green full strength. We used to use it on out tires for off road racing in Salem. It seemed to help.
