Re: What is a good TIRE Dressing?
Thanks,
I think I'll try out the 303 since I have a bottle of it already.

My personal favorite is Licorice Black by System One. Gives a nice matte finish and lasts a long time. Smells like licorice too, if your interested. Tough to source here in Canada though. My bottle has run out and I will try to find another at a reasonable cost.

Re: What is a good TIRE Dressing?
I got a bottle of 303 8 years ago when I bought a vinyl cover for my truck. At that time it was touted as a tire dressing stating that it was essential for repleneshing the essential oils in the tires. I used that until I discovered Griots.
Griots rubber cleaner followed by Griots vinyl and rubber dressing. Low gloss. Gives more of a new tire look. Durabilty is not super strong, but, repeated use will give the tire a nice new look even when not freshly dressed.

Opti Bond, Ultima Tire & Trim or 303. I also have Wheel Wax dressing. It looks nice , similar to Opti Bond but not as durable IME. It was a BOGO.

Re: What is a good TIRE Dressing?
I used the 303 extensively.
It went on easy but I seem to have used a lot but I did a lot.
Half a bottle about 8 oz or so.
I did the tires and all the rubber and bumpers and interior. There is a lot of plastic and rubber on my 2010 Savana. So that isn't too bad I guess as I did spray it all over the door trim panels on the doors and all the rubber door seals and the huge dash too, just about all the plastic and rubber on a big vehicle.
I went 4 wheelin on memorial Day to the lake where it is very dusty and sandy. My tires are coated with dust and dirt as is the whole vehicle especially the tires and rear bumber which I 303 heavily. I am going to wash it either tomorrow or sat. Then I will see how the 303 does. My back bumber is coated with dirt. I want to see how well it comes off and if the 303 has anything left or if I already need to reapply.
That will be the first test for 303.
I will let you guys know in a few days.

Optimum Opti-Bond or Pinnacle Black Onyx tire gel get my vote.
