RC Tyre Additives & Traction Compounds

Dial in race-winning grip with our RC tyre additives and traction compounds from Hudy, MR33, CS Racing, MobGums and Spider Grip. Whether you’re chasing carpet traction for 1/10 touring, consistency on asphalt, or bite on astro, we carry formulas for rubber and foam tyres to suit a wide range of track temperatures and surfaces.

Choosing the right additive: for indoor carpet, look for low-odour, club-safe blends; for outdoor asphalt, medium to strong compounds often work best. Foam tyres benefit from dedicated foam additives, while off-road buggies usually prefer lighter prep to avoid softening sidewalls. Always check your club’s rules. Application tips: apply a thin, even coat with a sponge or dauber, allow 5–15 minutes to soak (longer in cold conditions), then wipe off excess before the run. Top up between heats, clean tyres after each run, and store bottles sealed.

With large UK stocks and friendly, expert support, Wheelspin Models makes it easy to get the right additive fast. Most items are ready for swift dispatch with next day delivery options across the UK.
