Initial Inspection: The tyre undergoes a thorough visual and tactile inspection to assess its overall condition. This includes checking for signs of wear, damage, and structural integrity. Tires with excessive damage or structural issues may not be suitable for retreading. Buffing: The old tread is removed from the tyre using a buffing machine equipped with abrasive tools. This process smoothes the surface of the tyre and prepares it for the application of new tread.
