    Even when you scrub like crazy, a tire won't come fully clean with a degreaser or apc. Clean them like that initially and then before applying dressing, clean them again with mineral spirits.

    A good cleaning with a scrub brush and Tuf Shine Tire Cleaner, then apply a good coat of Tuf Shine Tire Clearcoat. Then, 24 hours later I top it with CG VRP or CarPro PERL. The tires will bead water and look fresh for about 2 months with this technique.

    Permanently? There is no way. Tire coatings will make it a little longer than a WB dressing will though.

    You can find a clear tire paint at some auto supply stores such as AutoZone. I have never used it but it does exist.

    Permanent?
    Thanks to the irreversibility of
    natural processes (entropy):
    No Way!

    Though, IMO:
    Tire Coatings tend to retard the
    progress of this phenomenon better
    than other types of tire dressings.

    There is NO permanent solution but getting your tire clean, really clean and applying a quality tire coating will net you a solid month on a DD, lots of choices out there, gotta look around and/or PM forum members.
