Before washing your vehicle, you will want to clean the tires. By doing them first, you will eliminate grime from splashing onto the already cleaned car panels. Use a separate wash bucket and brush.
Pick a good brush to scrub with. You’ll find there are many types of tire brushes available. When it comes to the tires, you need a stiff brush. Stiff nylon bristles do a good job of reaching into the nooks and crannies of the tire.
Use your brush to scrub the tires thoroughly with your cleaning product. For the best results, always clean the tires one at a time. This keeps cleaning products from drying on. Rinse each one with a strong force of water before continuing to the next one.
Once every tire is clean, you will need to dry them. Microfiber detailing towels or terry cloth towels may be used, but keep these towels for use on the wheels and tires only to avoid scratching the vehicle’s body paint. Drying tires and wheels prevents unsightly water spots and gives you an opportunity to get rid of every little bit of brake dust.
An excellent tire protectant is 303® Tire Balm. Once applied to the tire, it will leave behind a matte finish without any greasy or oily residue. Not only will it restore the color and luster of the tires, it will provide them with powerful UV blockers that prevent cracking. Additionally, the anti-static properties of 303® Automotive Protectant repels dust, smudges, staining, and soiling. This protectant is easy to apply. You need only spray it on, let stay for about 20 minutes and then simply wipe the excess off the surface dry.
