    Tuf shine tire clear coat

    I'm going to give this product a try and wanted to know how long to wait between adding coats.

    Re: Tuf shine tire clear coat

    Generally I wait about 15-minutes or so or until it appears dry. If'n ya got tires with a lot of crevices, these make real nice applicators although the included orange tough shine application sponge is certainly no slouch either: http://www.autogeek.net/carrand-tire...ing-brush.html

    Re: Tuf shine tire clear coat

    I recently attended Mike Phillips' road show class here in Wisconsin. We used one of the tire coatings (can't remember if it was Tuf Shine or McKee's 37) and a tip that Mike gave us was to use a Metro Blaster SideKick to speed up the drying time between desired coats. If you have a SideKick (or other type of forced air dryer) it will speed up the process for you.

    If you don't have one, I think 15-30 minutes drying time between coats would be sufficient.

    Very good technique for both tire coatings you mentioned. Saves lots of time. After reading Mike write up on it, it is how I do it.
