Fusor 250 Tire Shield by LORD Corporation

The LORD Corporation was awarded third place in NACE's Best New Product competition for its long-lasting tire coating that offers improved appearance and protection for automobile tires.

Available as the Fusor 250 Tire Shield, the coating system bonds directly to the tire surface to create a long-lasting glossy black shine. The non-silicone treatment protects tires from discoloration or cracking, does not wash off, and has been shown to provide protection and aesthetic benefit for up to six months - more than 50 times longer-lasting than competing products. Further, the oil-and fluid-resistant coating has been proven safe as an anti-ozone protection for the tire sidewall and was validated as safe for use on vehicle tires by Akron Rubber Development Laboratory.

According to Jim Perritt, marketing and sales manager for LORD Corporation Fusor Automotive Repair Adhesives, the product offers auto enthusiasts a "like-new" look that does not need the frequent reapplication typically required with other products.

"Unlike other tire treatments," said Perritt, "the Fusor 250 Tire Shield bonds directly to the tire sidewall, providing a long-term seal of protection from rain, brake dust, road dirt, ozone and car washings."

The coating is a result of a unique chemical formulation originally developed to meet the stringent demands of the aerospace industry. After decades of proven use in aviation as well as other industrial applications, chemists at LORD Corpora-tion altered the formulation to create a coating option that provides any car tire with show quality shine for months.
