    Can't get rid of Tire Browning

    Hey guys, I'm cleaning a 14' Camry today. I came across this browning on the tires.

    I used 3 applications of Megs d143, after not getting rid of it after that, I used 3 applications Mckee's Tire and Rubber Rejuvenator. Scrubbing very well with each application.

    What's the deal? I thought the Tire and Rubber rejuvenator was sorta supposed to specialize in getting rid of browning.

    Any help is Greatly Appreciated!

    You don't have to get rid of every last Trace if you're using the McKees Tire coating. I have the same thing on my car because the tires are 3 years old you'll never get all the brown off but it will look good after you coat it you won't see it

    Exactly. There will always be some type of brown on the tires, especially older tires like those. A good tire dressing should straighten that right out.

    Sometimes I will use Bleche-Wite by Black Majic to get rid of old tire dressings when I want to apply a new dressing . It works for me to really clean tires , but like some have said on older tires you will always have some browning and a tire dressing usually helps out .

    "Every tire has its own predisposition
    to blooming (browning). This depends
    on factors such as: the rubber/rubber
    blend; the type of tire; how and where
    you drive; etc.

    However, regular cleaning and protecting
    procedures will help you prolong the tires'
    expected service-life."

    Like FUNX650 said, you may or may not get rid of all the tire blooming.

    This. Plus, I have also found that Meguiar's Hot Rims wheel and tire cleaner works VERY well on de-blooming tires. Better than D143, which many people claim is the same as Hot Rims.
