Best tire dressings?

**Coatingsarecrack** · 06-08-2021, 03:58 AM

So been using coatings on my tires but Perl in my moms rav4. Last a couple of weeks w/o rain and needs application again if it did rain.

I have Tac systems tire coat which lasted about a month for a coating so I ipgraded to something else and this just sat on the shelf.

I was applying Perl to the tire but grabbed wrong bottle (thought it was Perl bat was TSTC) so sprayed two pumps.

Knew instantly was wrong product because although i wasnt a fan of the longevity, It’s my favorite smelling detailing product,

I usually put for sprays of Perl on the applicator so I just decided to add 2 Perl sprays to the 2 TSTC.

Applied, look fine. Lasted twice as long as perl by itself and looked better. Stayed clean too.

The reason i’m posting is i got about a month on this Combo even through rain. Sits outside 24/7 driven about 700-800 miles a month.

This it today. No cleaning. Was surprised how clean it was.

So didnt clean it at all and applied the same combo to all for wheels. Reason I like dressings is i can go a couple of applications w/o washing. Can’tcdo this with a coating it will brown.

Same combo on same tire. Applied to all 4.

Whole car.

Love the look and were suppose to get rain for a couple of days. Hope it lasts another month.

Glad you like it. It was a product that I didn't like. I ended up tossing it into the trash can. It always left the tires brown after a couple weeks.

Yeah i didn’t like it as a coating but hope i can use it mixed up as a dressing. Depending on how i like mckees long term i may go back to dressings as well.

Hi folks, what about gyeon tire? Is that considered a tire coating? Does it brown tires?

Not a tire coating and no it doesn’t brown tires.

Thanks again Mike. I didn't think so.

I'm looking for long-lasting, car wash immune products. Any suggestions?

Sorry for the late reply, I've been offline working and traveling and then I took a day off to recharge the batteries.

If you don't mind doing a thorough cleaning/prep of the tires the first time before applying Tuf Shine Clearcoat, you should never have to do heavy scrubbing of tires again once the clearcoat is applied. Because the clearcoat is like a finish on the tires, dirt is easily removed from the surface just like on the paint of your car. A quick cleaning with mild soap and water to remove any road scum should be all you need to do in the future.
