Dangerous advice videos on youtube.
There are certain things that 303 aerospace protectant can greatly increase the life of, but this dumbass is telling people to spray it on tire tread. Hundreds of thousands of people have watched this video, and it has a lot of thumbs up.
I spray 303 on my leather seats. Have you noticed how slippery it is after you wipe it off? That's what this guy is advising on the TREAD, for the purpose of getting double mileage on tires.
That's why the tread lasts so much longer, because all the gravel and sand just slips off the rubber. Have you noticed how you can't scratch an oiled or slick piece of rubber?
Tires rely on friction to stop your car, and when you're making it slippery, you're adding danger to yourself and others.
Hot damn.

I'd be curious to see some tests of how 303 affects grip. The same channel has a vid about soaking drive belts in 303, I sprayed a belt down out of curiosity it didn't slip or cause any issues but I don't know if it will extend the life of the belt massively like they claim.

I'm not saying do this, but my guess is this doesn't impact grip as much as you think, and not for very long. The coating of 303 on the tread will wash off quick.
