Were your tires surgically clean before applying it?

Well...I laid down a base/2nd and 3rd coat of a just released tire dressing last week, this is the 2nd cleaning of them. I first sprayed 303 Tire and Rubber cleaner on and let it dwell. I then foamed the car, as well as the tires, wheels and well and let it sit. I then scrubbed the tires with my Mothers Tire brush and wheels and barrels with my Speed Master and rinsed. I then dried with my designated mf towel and finally used my Master Blaster sidekick to make the tires and wheels dry, I then applied 2x's TW Endure tire coating...
Not sure how "surgical" it was, I mean when scrubbing the tires down I didn't see any brown

I think the most important thing would be if they were slick or not.. Usually if they’re slick or black it’s because there’s still remnants of other tire products on the tire and that’s when tire coatings can have less than expected results. You’re no rookie with the tire coating, so I’m just sayin..
Before applying a tire coating I like a tire to be nice and dry, bare, even if it’s a little brown that’s ok because at least I know there’s no signs of other tire products on it.

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
Well, my tires were somewhere in the middle, LOL. I'll tell you these Blizzaks absorb tire "dressings" quite a bit, so we'll see how it does, it's been a while. Soft compound tires are pretty pores, so I may need to stick with Griot's Garage Black Shine Tire Gel or Gyeon Q2 Tire. That said, tire dressing #8 is within my site, the upcoming new tire product from Gyeon, a product that can be applied to a wet tire, stay "tuned"

I purchased the Weathertech cleaner and protectant earlier this year and they have been treated. I am not convinced on the cleaner but I am convinced on the protectant. I use Blackfire BF-450 APC to clean them with a soft brush and they clean up easily. I am a big fan of the Weathertech products and I was able to buy them on Autogeek. With a sale and free shipping, it was cheaper than going to Weathertech direct.
