An air tire buffer is a tool that is used in the tire maintenance
and repair industry. It uses a buffing wheel, to rough up the surface of a tire
prior to patching or recapping. This helps to ensure a better bond
between the patch or recap and the tire. Additionally, the buffing wheel
can be used to clean tire moldings, removing dirt and debris that can
accumulate over time. This tool is an essential tool for tire
professionals, who use it to prepare tires for repair and maintenance
work, making it easier to work with and extend the life of the tire.
