Tire Cleaner?
 
Ok so I made a tire cleaner. I took a hand cleaning brush and a rubber maid food container. I figured I glue the brush to the container. At first I tried tire glue and let it sit over night, didnt work. So I thought ok plastic on plastic and it needs to be ok in water so I bought apoxy. I let it sit for 48 hours and took it to the track well after one tire it came undone. Any idea of how to build one or how to get plastic to stick to eachother. Thanks:confused:

A couple of wood screws from the bottom and you will be golden

plus some silicone to make it water resistant

The problem is that even with out water the glue and apoxy will not set hard. And wood screws would leak out.

I used a comercial grade glue called E3000. they are stuck on and have no chance of coming off. with no screws. Its available at manards or a Home depot.

I think I used Shoe Goo and Tire Glue to hold the brush inside mine. Been a year now...still holding strong ;-)
