ive had many a flat 4 wheeler tire flattened due to prickly pear n mesquite thorns out there
 
I agree w/ Skam the gaterback is a good belt..

And yeah, if you own property in Texas than you need a decent tire..

You will need to use some kind of solvent to remove the last bits of residue. Use something that doesn't leave a residue behind-- something alcohol or petroleum based. I generally use brake parts cleaner for that kind of stuff.

brake parts cleaner would prolly work great now that i think of it......and the auto shop has an abundance of it
