Stunting on polished concrete with coke

So I have an indoor show/demo on the 13th, and its on polished concrete...So Im just wondering if you guys can give me some tips...

(1) How does it feel? Does it compare to riding in the wet, or on sandy pavement? Or is it totally different, and what should I expect? Any tips?

(2) I got a box of coke syurp, so what is the process for applying it? Im going to get one of those pressurized garden sprayers, but do I have to mix it with anything or just spray it as it is? How long before I ride on it should I spray it? And does it really help alot?

Any info, tips, or suggestions would be much appreciated boys

If it has had ice on it, make sure it's been off for a while. The moisture can come up through the concrete and **** with the syrup.

Apply thin coat, let tack, repeat. If done right, the take off spot feels almost like traction aid at a dragstrip.

Have any more ?'s hit me up with a PM

Thanks its a convention centre, so there was never any ice...And its pretty old so its not like brand spanking new glossy stuff.

So I can just spray the syrup without thinning it out?

And will something like this work for spraying it?

Re: Stunting on polished concrete with coke

that ll work fine!! make the finest mist possible.
i did 4 shows last weekend on concrete. i used regular coca cola.. just do a few coats with it and give it plenty of time to dry, depending on the temp. it wont last long so dont use the same spot to clutch it up! save burnouts and drifts till the end..

Re: Stunting on polished concrete with coke

Cool so whats better, regular coke or coke syrup? Cause what I thought I needed was the coke syrup, that goes in soda pop fountains and mixs with soda to make pop...Like what they have at Bking and Mcdicks...

Its a box with a bag inside filled with syrup...

Re: Stunting on polished concrete with coke

yeah i know what you mean, but i never used that stuff. i just got a few cases of regular coke. Lay the first coat on the night before. if you are doing several shows per day you have to reapply it IMMEDIATELY after you finish a show. if the shows are a few hours apart the maybe you can get an extra layer on.
test it out first, dont let the show be the first test!!!

all this advice is worth a 600rr stuntstay btw!

















kidding ;-)

Re: Stunting on polished concrete with coke

I think that nozzle will clog pretty fast.

Re: Stunting on polished concrete with coke

Syrup works way better. I usually applied it with a mop lightly and then let it tack up. The stuff I use is pretty thick so I never tried the sprayer thing.
