I use a smaller round tipped detailing brush to get into the nook and cranny of the tyres sidewall relief pattern. It avoided sling, but do allow to dry.😊
I have found a medium density brush works really really well for dressing application. Such as a boars hair brush or even the salt and pepper brush from chemical guys at walmart.
Try a soft (white/gray) carpet drill brush. Use it to quickly scrub the degreaser into the tire and then wash both tires and brush. When tires are dry use it again to quickly apply the tire dressing.
Hey Josh, when you are finished using the microfiber applicator pad, what's the best way to get them clean and rid of most of the chemicals for the next use? Should you dunk it in a bucket of soapy water a few times and squeeze? Do you ever put a bunch in the washer?
Now I have to go buy a brush cuz I have all terrain tires lol I just bought the lil pads to dress my tires 🙃 but I'm glad I seen your video never thought to use a brush
Josh, ive been lots of your videos, but i cannot find a video that you tell what you use for carpet prep cleaner you spray with. Will tell me what you use. Thanks,Tim.
Any options for making tires black and clean.. without shine ??? i hate shiny tires on an SUV/4wd makes it look like a grocery getter . Any matte option ?
I picked up mother's speed tire shine the other day and I was blown away. I've never seen such a wet and super shiny tire dressing like this. Just have to block the wheel with something so it doesn't get onto it. But you should check it out Josh
@@Pittsburgh-412 No I like satin black tyres. Not tacky looking shiny ones. This is why most new tyre dressings aren't shiny and are called a dressing... Tires shine is the shit people used to use 20 years ago from armorall
Great video! I have a couple wheel cleaning videos as well. I'm going to have to give that tire dressing a shot, it looks good. I've been using Xtreme Solutions Longevity on my tires.
I use a large raceglaze round brush. Typically I apply Perl at full strength. However, I remove the excess and/or flatten them out with an old 4" flat paint brush. Since Perl doesn't have a trigger, I'll sometimes cut it 1:1 in a small spray bottle. My preferred process is pouring Perl into large-mouth container that will accept the brush and dip it into the product as you would paint. I use a handled container with magnet for the brush. Common item at any paint supply store.
Really nice video there Josh! I was wondering if you have white lettering on the tires and you use a tire dressing will that make the white darker? I live in Quebec, Canada and I can't really test it for myself as it is very cold and covered by a lot of snow
Yes, just dont let it dry (no matter what surface your cleaning never let it dry). Anywhere from 4:1 to 10:1 depending on how dirty it is. Test it out at 10:1 and if you want it stronger just add the same amount of Superclean to your mix to get 5:1 and itll just just about anything....I use it on wheel wells and tires.
Hey josh love your channel!!! I am using a APC for a wheel and tire cleaner my question is can it be harsh even if it’s diluted at a low power formula? Thx man
crazy, there is a detailgreen down the street from my shop in clairemont, is that u? ur shirt says carlsbad, just wonderin, maybe ill cruise by and get a detail lol
Hi Josh..is the 3d ultra dressing still today would u say the best or one of the best dressing ..or Adam's graphene dressing.. .. I use Adam's and still feel doesn't last long. Anything u recommend I'm located on the east coast... Thanx in advance... Mike
Personally I think that tire shine is something you do sometimes cause you like it, too much effort for only the tires. Also strong cleaners needed for the tires will decolor and probably damage the tire in the long run. I'm trying CarPro Darkside to have it last at least 1 and a half month, it says 3 months but we will see.
as a detailer i only dress the side of the tire that doesn't contact the road. i never understood why most detailers and people in general feel the need to dress thee contact patch and then ask why they get sling 😆
Is there a hands free car wash in San Diego that you could recommend. I am driving down there this weekend and I want to get the bugs and dust off of my new Tesla. Thanks
How does the 3d product compare to meguiars hyper dressing ? Hyper has been my go to for years but now it is hard to get and ones you may get are so expensive
Do you have any videos or suggestions as to when your windshield starts to get a “sandblast “ look when it’s cleaned. Something like refurbishing a windshield.
🇺🇸New subscriber here!!! 🇺🇸 Josh how long does this product last? I’m looking for a great shine on my Jeep Wrangler Willy’s. Looking for a product that lasts the longest. Thank you and excellent channel brother. New Jersey here
Hey man, this is probably a very specific question, but what can you recommend for the sidewalls on a set of Michelin pilot sport 4s? Nothing seems to want to stick to mine. I have tried applying tire dressing with a brush and with applicators, as soon as I go to wipe the excess it looks dull.
I've had issues like that with other types of tires. I try to avoid direct sun light if possible cause it tends to dry up or soak up thinner tire dressings way too fast but if you're using thin dressing put it on it thin coats. One coat and go to the next. Work your way around the vehicle like that. The dressing should tac up some and the dab the excess off instead of wiping. My personal tires I use Maguires endurance tire gel. It's the purple stuff. Easy to use as long as you have a primed sponge like dressing applicator. Work the dressing in real good. But with the gel I use I normally don't wipe of excess cause I work it in really good and I'm not driving right after. Hopefully this helps you
Dude your from SD? Me to I’m from the mountains towards the Indian casino. I’d like to pick your brain bout detailing I just started my own business for detailing
I’m here because I got the wrong brush 😖. But In case anyone was wondering - THIS IS WHY you need an electric pressure washer. The gas is so inconvenient.
Do you mean applying like an airbrush? That will still get over spray on the wheel. Not a big deal on silver wheels but can really effect the appearance of black wheels
If you want an even easier method than that……..all you have to do is rub in the tire dressing as you normally would and forget about all of the foamy extra stuff that gets into the crevices. When you’re done dressing The tire, pull out your blower and blow The edges around the tire and you’ll be good to go!!!
When I wash, I drive my vehicle onto 2x6 planks (one short piece per wheel) so that I can access the bottom of the tires. It works really well
I just back my car up until the bottom is at the top, lol
I use a floor jack just so the wheels spin
I remove all 4 wheels to apply tire dressing
@@jonathangodinez304 yes good idea but I always think about liability when it comes to coustomers I do that to my daily driver at least for my own car
I do the same thing but with rv leveling blocks. Cheap and waterproof
Quickly becoming my go to car detailing RUclips channel
I love this channel. I literally come here for reviews on every product I look at for my business! Much less expensive than trial and error.
That's perfect, I was going to ask how you'd do it on a AT truck tire and you demoed exactly what I wanted to see! KO2's are nice tires!
I use a smaller round tipped detailing brush to get into the nook and cranny of the tyres sidewall relief pattern. It avoided sling, but do allow to dry.😊
I do that, then drive 12” forward to get the dirty bottom to the top and now get it 100% clean. People always leave one spot on the tire dirty!
Very nice results. Proper use of those brushes and technique is the way to go. Thanks Josh for making it so simple.

Interesting idea using it to apply the dressing as well.. Ill try that out!

Great channel man!!!!! One of my 3 go to channels for car detailing videos. Keep it up
Cover all tire shine claims to have no fling it works perfect. Probably would be great for this
I use cover all. It’s in a blue can
The tire looks fantastic! Very impressive!
Can we use the same brush for tires and rims?
Like just brush for the entire wheel

thanks for posting. now back to black wheels, best way to brighten (shine) black colored wheels?

Great job
Hi Josh. New to the channel. Love the content. Excellent presentations.
Can you use Super Clean to clean wheels as well as tires ? If so what dilution or full strength ?
Yes, just dont let it dry (no matter what surface your cleaning never let it dry). Anywhere from 4:1 to 10:1 depending on how dirty it is. Test it out at 10:1 and if you want it stronger just add the same amount of Superclean to your mix to get 5:1 and itll just just about anything....I use it on wheel wells and tires.

New subscriber here. Love all the professional advice. Any product suggestions for more of a matte finish? Not a fan of the wet look.
Yea same product but you can dilute it a bit with water to knock down the glass.. or just pat it down with a microfiber after application
What tire cleaner do you recommend for polished aluminum wheels, I have 35s and need help cleaning them without hurting wheels
1st and great video!!
Can this product be used on plastic and rubber trim? Also if it rains will it streak?
Lastbquestiin is this a polymer based product?
Can you do a review on the aqua shine tire shine?
What do you think about the graphene based VRT from Adams? They claim it's water based but it's in a squeeze bottle
I usually use paint brushes of various sizes
Personally I think that tire shine is something you do sometimes cause you like it, too much effort for only the tires.
Also strong cleaners needed for the tires will decolor and probably damage the tire in the long run.

Great video ! You using a Power washer or what ?

Get some glass polish..and use 0000 steel wool to clean the glass

Is tire "sling" caused by...
1. Insufficient time to dry
or the
2. Type of product
Yes to both?
What about excess dressing?

Adams tire shine , the banana scented one, apply with a brush(detail factory)Works wonders.
Can the max shine wheel and tire cleaner be diluted?
I always spray the tire with dressing lightly wipe it down and drive off to get splatter of gunk all up and down the side of my durango 😂😂😂
Dude your from SD? Me to I’m from the mountains towards the Indian casino. I’d like to pick your brain bout detailing I just started my own business for detailing

The best tire shine
1ST TO COMMENT!!!

whats up josh v
Yo!!!
I’m here because I got the wrong brush 😖.
But In case anyone was wondering - THIS IS WHY you need an electric pressure washer. The gas is so inconvenient.
2nd
why not just use an air compressor
Do you mean applying like an airbrush? That will still get over spray on the wheel. Not a big deal on silver wheels but can really effect the appearance of black wheels
Company sold out of brushes. You put them under lol.
They all claim best tire junk. I haven't found a good one yet

When you’re done dressing The tire, pull out your blower and blow The edges around the tire and you’ll be good to go!!!
I just use cleaners I don’t use dressings there stupid in my opinion
