Best darn tire cleaning brush I've ever used!

Best darn tire cleaning brush I've ever used!





Yep, the Porter Cable with a Cyclo brush mounted to it instead of the backing plate! Takes ALL the elbow grease out of getting old, slimy tire dressings off, blooming, (the brown residue that builds-up when antiozonants meet ozone in the air), and deteriorated dead rubber.




Here's the tires I need to clean. They have some type of slimy tire dressing on them and the white letters look kind of brownish...




I'm going to apply Tuf Shine and the directions for Tuf Shine state that all previously applied dressings need to be removed in order for the Tuf Shine Clearcoat. I started out using the Tuf Shine Brush and it as well as any good tire brush will get the job done but ding dang scrubbing tires surgically clean is a LOT of work and it's awkward because the tires are low to the ground and vertical faced.


First I sprayed on the Tuf Shine Tire Cleaner...





Then I let the machine do the work... now I'll let the pictures do the talking...










After scrubbing the tires clean I moved the Monte Carlo back into the studio to get the paint polished but here's how the tires look now, perfectly clean and ready for application of the Tuf Shine Clearcoat.





Let the machine do the work...
So if you already own a Porter Cable, Meguiar's G110v2 or Griot's Garage DA Polisher, then add a Cyclo brush or to and anytime you have any brush cleaning to do, let the machine do the work for you.





This is the Grey Ultra Soft Upholstery Brush...






Action shot!




There are 4 different brushes available so you can choose the aggressiveness of the brush bristles for your scrubbing job...

Looks like fun and easy. I like it

[KillaCam]

That is pretty neat. I'd just hate to have all that grime sling onto the paint and my porter cable!

I had this thought in my head the other day. Glad to see I was on the right track. Thanks Mike.

Mike do you know if this will fit on the Griots 3"?

Hey Mike,

In your next featured article can you do a follow up on this article for the "best darn way to clean your PC" ROFL!

Definitely beats scrubbing! Would hate to have all that gunk on my DA though...

[GenesisCoupe]

hmm..maybe with an extension this can be used to clean wheel wells? With wheel off of course.

I've tried old MF buffing pads using a DA on tires. You'd be surprised.

Cool stuff.
