Razor smooth tires

The excess material produced when tires are molded is called ‘flashing.’ The inside bead usually has a thin film of it that can get in the way when you mount the tires. You can use scissors or a hobby knife to remove it, but that can be time-consuming and clumsy. To get a clean cut quickly, use a safety razor with a fresh blade.
