8. KLEAN STRIP JAPAN DRIER=

9. GOATPEE=

Your best bet is to get in touch with someone who sells/promotes/knows about tire chemicals and let them lead you to where you think you need to go.
You'll waste a wheelbarrow load of time, prep and $$ doing it on your own.
Don't ask me how I know that ^^.
 
1. ACETONE=harsh softener, dries out the tire, usually used in connection with a lubricant or less aggressive chemical

2. MINERIAL SPIRITS=mild softener, usually used a base or cutting agent for other preps

3. WD40=light oil, provides some bite, mainly used to replenish the oil in the tire

4. DIESEL= heavy softener, usually used before race day and in combination with a grip agent

5. ACRYSOL= mild softener, cleaning, usually used to cut another prep or preprep to allow deeper or quicker penetration

6. ATF=similar to wd-40, mild softer

7. DENATURED ALCOHOL=mild hardener, will dry the tire out over time, not generally used as a tire prep

8. KLEAN STRIP JAPAN DRIER=never used, would assume similar to #7

9. GOATPEE=harsh softener, produces immediate bite

10. HOTLAP=conditions tire, adds some grip, makes tire fire quicker, last longer

11. KEROSINE-=see diesel, has a little more grip

12. TIRE TUFF=between race conditioner keeps tire stable

13. CREO=mild softener, very aggressive grip agent, dries tire out.
