This is a 4 ounce bottle of ProTek R/C "TruGrip" Maximum Traction Tire Compound. There is no such thing as too much grip and ProTek R/C is here to provide it with their specially formulated TruGrip line of tire traction compounds. Available in three different compounds to suit a variety of conditions, TruGrip has you covered with their Light, Medium and Maximum compounds for you to choose from. For on-road, off-road, rubber or foam tires, TruGrip is the sauce for your winning recipe.  

The ProTek R/C TruGrip Maximum Compound is ideal for racers looking to break-in new tires and when maximum tire softening is desired. It is a great solution for damp, wet or extra slick track surfaces and cool outdoor temperatures. The Maximum compound is the most "potent" of the three compounds.

 

TruGrip Compounds:
  • Light: Hotter temperatures, hard-packed fast dry dusty tracks
  • Medium: Moderate temperatures, marginal tracks, light moisture or dry slick conditions
  • Maximum: Cool temperatures, damp or wet extra slick tracks

When it comes to high quality products that are backed by incredible customer support, ProTek R/C has you covered with the products you need to keep your rig ready for action, no matter what.

ProTek RC "TruGrip" Maximum Traction Tire Compound (4oz)
I purchased a bottle of TruGrip Maximum, I used it in the summer once but didn't noticed a difference. However, I was very new to R/C racing and didn't notice much of anything to be honest. I decided to try it again this past Friday in the second heat, after running 18.5 laps constantly for 2 weeks the laps times dropped to 17.954 after applying TruGrip. I applied the compound again 15 minutes prior to the A main and the laps dropped to 17.885. Again this is after running mid-18 second laps constantly for multiple weeks and 18.700 in the heat prior to using the compound. I know a lot of people swear by different compounds but for me with the statistical data to back it up, I can highly recommend this product and I will be purchasing additional bottles.

ProTek RC "TruGrip" Maximum Traction Tire Compound (4oz)
I really like this stuff early in the day when the track is holding more moisture and hasn't had many cars over it, which is exactly what the product description recommends. Seems to be very aggressive and helps new tires break in quickly. Spray it on your applicator brush and then apply doesn't get everywhere and make a mess. One guy told me he got some on his radio and didn't realize it and it gummed up the plastic a bit. In a perfect world, the bottle would be a dauber rather than a spray cap.

Very good sauce, usually use this one when my car has good traction, and just need that little bit extra to have an advantage over my competitors! Definitely worth trying out! Oh did I forget to mention it almost has no odor?

This stuff works great. I race on carpet and I use this to fine tune my cars balance by applying to either the front or rear tires. I haven't used any other compounds but I let some other racers at my track try this and they all said this was the best compound they had ever used. On top of all that, it doesn't have the offensive odor that you get with other traction compounds. I definitely recommend this product. I've already ordered a second bottle.

Trugrip Max had very good traction. Its a pretty harsh chemical on rubber so this is good for soaking new tires for break in. This stuff breaks rubber down well.

Got a bottle of this and used it at the track this weekend, it was the best stuff out there. I shared it with a few guys and they loved it too. I'd highly recommend.

This sauce is very good and on track you burn tires it will work well.
Where it didnt work for me is with panther slick short course tires on a clay track, the track is known for good tire life but this sauce just destroys the tire making it very loose over the foam.

So good stuff but not for panther sct slick tires on med/wet clay style track

For onroad, just as good as mighty gripper black, and costs more than 3 times less, doesn't smell bad or have I'll effects on tires or foams for onroad TC and USGT tires, haven't tried it in offroad yet.

Gives you traction but will eat the car body cracking and paint removed, will make plastic brittle and destroy a car

ProTek RC "TruGrip" Maximum Traction Tire Compound (4oz)
I don't know people here have written those praising reviews about this product. I read these reviews and unfortunately bought this product. I can easily say that it is such an average traction compound. you Spray on tires. Let them dry. Then? 1 minute of improved traction and that's all. HUDY's traction compound does a way way better job.

ProTek RC "TruGrip" Maximum Traction Tire Compound (4oz)
this stuff is great! it gets your tires nice and soft and maximum traction for those mains! only complaints is that i wish they would have a flip cap or some kind of twist nozzle instead of a sprayer cap, the spray method is just a mess and it tends to waste majority of the sauce. i just throw a associated fluid cap on top and bam! i wouldn't put holes on the tires if this is the sauce you are going to use, it tends to get in there and eat up the foam.

I bought this product because of the good reviws. I didnt feel like it helped me gain traction. The prodect drys very slow and causes the body to lose its shine. I had better luck with sticky fingers.
