I agree that tyre manufacturers should have a recommended cleaner for the tires for when they are mounted. Also be aware that the shop will use liberal amounts of goo to get the rubber on the bead. This can fling off and make your tire slippery too. I think mounted tires should be scrubbed with detergent and rinsed well before being installed on bikes.
losing traction when you only have 2 tires is bad
