Tire Dressings PERL vs Hyper Dressing D170

**FrankS** · 03-14-2018, 02:34 PM

This car hasn’t been driven since PERL and Hyper Dressing was applied a few days ago but it has been through a rainstorm after the dressings were applied.

PERL diluted 1:1 on the front tires.

Hyper Dressing diluted 1:2 on the rear tires.

About the same look.

The old cliche, all tires are not created equal.

^^^True^^^

That's why it's a good idea to have more than one type of tire dressing in your arsenal, particularly if you detail for business.

Carrand Brush & Shine Tire Dressing Applicators, tire brush, tire shine applicator

Or

Boar's Hair Wheel Brush

Or

And forgive me forum folks... Chemical Guys also has a 'Flagged Tip Brush' that technically isn't carried here that works well for tire dressings

Thanks Goonie, I think i will get one of those and try it out. Don't think i will pay thirty bucks for a brush to apply tire coating though. I will start off with one of the less expensive ones.

I just don't love the small sponges made for this purpose.

I did a test between both products @1:1 on the same tire a couple of nights ago.

1st I cleaned the tire with Mothers Tire Renew..

Then I applied each 1 to their side of the tire.

We got some light rain overnight.. And some showers yesterday as well, but other than that this truck has only been to the store and back in those 2 days. Maybe 3 miles of driving, tops.

Look at the tire this morning...

Lost some sheen, but that's how I like it.

IMO it lost it all. I can’t even locate the tape mark. I guess you were right about the rain.☔️

And it looks like your cat was interested in the results as well......

So I guess neither wins much of a longevity award, but the Meg's is more economical with the gallon size price of Hyper Dressing.
