Question what are your thoughts

just wondering what are some of your thoughts on this product, im unsure if any of you have heard of this, but its called Tire Power / tire softener. heres what they say about it

"Tire Power is a unique tire treatment that penetrates the surface and softens the rubber. Unlike any of its competitors, Tire Power’s non-flammable, non-toxic formula actually reverses the aging process and gives increased levels of grip on all types of race tires.
Tire Power is easily applied with a brush or roller onto the surface of the tire and is then allowed to penetrate. Further coats complete the treatment process. The tires are then left for 4-5 days before use to ensure adequate penetration and softening. Shrink-wrapping the tire is unnecessary, as Tire Power simply does not evaporate.
Get the edge on the opposition! Guaranteed to reduce lap times, Tire Power can even extend the life of your old race tires by bringing back that lost performance."

is this stuff even legal or even safe? again whats your thought?

Donnie

This sound similar to a product called VHT, this is used in drag racing to treat the rubber on the track. It softens the rubber and creates much more grip for the launch.

I would think that it would have a negative effect on the rubber after the product has
