Tyre cleaning & dress up

(1/4) > >>

MaverickFSI:
Hi chaps, me again!

What products are best recommended for cleaning tyres the dressing them up afterwards? Also, is there a set sort of process?

Cheers.

I clean them along with the wheels. Use a stiff brush and dilute APC to scrub the sidewalls. When dry, use a tyre dressing. I use megs endurance tyre gel from halfrauds. The difference is that I apply using a brush so it gets into the lettering etc and I leave it to dry rather than buff off. Leaves a shiny wet finish which I love. If you plan on driving the car soon after, buff off the product. Poorboys natural look dressing is also good to use on tyres.

Remember, unlike showroom cars which aren't driven, the dressing wear off over the next few days.

big al:
Same as Stealth,  I use the Megs gel when at shows and it looks nice and clean, not too over the top, and though it does fade over a few days it still keeps them looking nice and clean.
I use the Megs applicator sponge for them too (the one that's like a shoe polish in a plastic box), seem to do a good job.

MaverickFSI:
Much appreciated guys, good info :happy2:

I use the megs stuff with the applicator sponge thingy, it works a treat but does fade after a few days
