 What is the best tire dressing? That, of course, varies from person to person. To select the best tire dressing, you need to determine how much shine you want, how much time you want to put into it, and how you prefer to apply the dressing. Once you know these things, we understand it can still be confusing, sifting through all the different types of tire products available. So, how do you go about selecting the best tire dressing for you and get the best results? Before doing anything, you evaluate your tires, wheels, and how much time you want to put into it. Do you prefer a one-step product or a multi-step approach? Finally, how much shine do you desire and the application format you like best? If your tires only need light cleaning and just need to be maintained, we have a couple of options for cleaning and dressing your tires at the same time. Maguire's Ultimate Waterless Wheel and Tire is a great way to lightly clean both wheels and tires while applying some dressing for a dark, rich, light new look at the same time. It's also convenient as you don't need a hose or water. When using this product, spray one wheel and tire at a time. Mist your wheel and spray a little more on your tire. Wipe your wheel clean with a microfiber and turn to a clean side for a final wipe. For slightly more gloss on your tire, you can let the product self-spread or, for a less glossy finish, spread evenly with an applicator. If you have limited time, you can also clean and dress your tires at the same time with either Maguire's Hot Shine Tire Foam or Maguire's Hot Shine Reflect Foam. Both clean, shine, and protect tires and they allow you to simply spray and walk away. With Hot Shine Tire Foam, you get a deep, black shine. Hot Shine Reflect Foam also gives you the same deep, black shine, plus a unique sparkling effect when the light hits it just right. When applying both products, hold the can four to six inches away and spray on the tire in a uniform pattern. Watch the foam work as it cleans and reveals a brilliant shine. Wipe off any excess or overspray on surrounding surfaces and let the product dry fully before driving. If your wheels and tires need moderate cleaning and you have OEM clear-coated wheels, there's Maguire's Hot Rim's Wheel and Tire Cleaner. With this product, work one wheel at a time on a cool surface in the shade. Pre-rinse the wheel and tire with water, then spray the cleaner on from the bottom upward. Agitate the tire with a medium to stiff tire brush and agitate the wheel with a soft wheel brush. Rinse off with a strong stream of water within 20 seconds. If you don't have OEM clear-coated wheels or you simply want to clean your tires, a good all-purpose cleaner or Maguire's Citrus Power Cleaner Plus is a great option. Work on a cool surface in the shade, spray onto one tire and agitate with a tire brush. After 30 to 45 seconds, rinse thoroughly with water, repeat on the remaining tires. Thoroughly cleaning the tires will remove dirt, debris and pre-existing tire dressing and ultimately allow for the dressing to not only look better, stick to the tire more effectively, but also last longer. Once you've determined how much gloss you want, it's time to dress your tires. With all tire products, be sure to work in a well-ventilated area, avoid spraying on concrete or asphalt and immediately remove overspray from wheels and paint. If you're looking for application control, Maguire's Endurance Tire Gel delivers a rich glossy shine in a traditional hand-applied format. With this product, simply put a little bit on a foam applicator or soft cloth and spread evenly. If you want more of a high-gloss wet-look shine, you'll want to go with Maguire's Hot Shine Tire Spray or Maguire's Hot Shine Tire Coating. Whether you choose the trigger or aerosol application, spray on thin and evenly and wipe off any excess. For even more shine with a deep, dark, insane wet look, you'll want Maguire's Next Generation Insane Shine Tire Coating. Or for a high-gloss with a soaking wet look, go with Maguire's Ultimate Insane Shine Tire Coating. With both of these aerosols, hold the can four to six inches away and spray a thin, even coat directly onto the tire. So the next time you want to clean and dress your tires, you'll know how to clean them, how to choose the best dressing, and finally get the results you want.
