How Do You Prevent Clay From Sticking To Lawn Mower Tires?
Clay in soil can be a real problem when you are trying to mow the lawn. The sticky clay can cling to the rubber tires and prevent your mower from having a smooth push. Clay on your tires can also create an uneven cut, so your lawn will look less than manicured. If you have the nuisance of clay clinging to your lawn mower tires, you can use a common household item to lubricate the tires and keep them clean and clear. Wash the tires on your lawn mower with dish detergent, water, and a scrub brush. Dry each tire with an old rag. Apply WD-40 to another rag and generously apply it to each tire. Make sure you get between the treads, where clay tends to stick. Repeat application as necessary to prevent clay from sticking to the tires.
