I agree. I have tried this and it worked great in the begining but then the hoses become hard and crack or the tip becoms clogged and sprays in the wrong directions.

not sure how good the idea of spraying it onto the rear tires would work, after all, the trackbite does require time to "set up" and thicken

I'm thinking it might actually make traction worse seeing as your tires would essentially be sprayed and wetted milliseconds before they hit the pavement and have to provide traction. Seems to me that they'd be "greasy" at best. Not to mention on an unprepped surface youre going to pick up an unbelieveable amount of dirt and dust

Spraying it on the ground, heating it and letting it setup and thicken is a whole lot different then hoping it will help while still in a liquid form..

Try it out and report back, Never done it so I don't know

I know it sure would make a mess though!
