I’m guessing dealer coating didn’t let tires off gas so I would wait another month or even to spring before I would re coat/dress.

To note I would clean tire now and then raw dog it for a month before applying dressing.
Using a drill tire brush (with drill) was the most useful advice I took from mike. Maked doing tires kinda fun.

Problem cleaning "new" tires
IME when dealing with the situation you’re describing, it’s not about how many times you clean them but more so how long it takes to finally cut through and finally get to that virgin state.
Good way to go about it with a good tire cleaner i.e. McKee’s Tire & Rubber Rejuvenator or Tuff Shine is to liberaly spray the cleaner onto the tire and scrub good but don’t rinse after just 1 go round, but instead keep scrubbing, and scrub even more… If you rinse prematurely all you’re doing is rinsing away the cleaner and wasting good product.
The best way to go about it is using a drill brush as has been suggested. Remembering not to rinse prematurely. A good tire cleaner will allow you to go a good 3x the scrubbing you would normally do on a properly maintained tire.
If anything, rinse your brush midway during the scrubbing, but not the tires as there’s plenty of life left with the amount of cleaner you initially sprayed onto the tires.

That looks like a good kit. We'll be detailing my uncle's new Silverado project after installing the brake pads and motiv wheels this week. The tires are almost new but needs a deep cleaning.
