With winter and cold weather on it's way to many parts of the world, many car owners and detailers will be moving indoors or will want to clean their wheels and tires without getting wet.
Two great products for doing this quickly and safely are Spray and Wipe Waterless wash and Bold N Bright Tire cleaner and dressing. (Gel too) !
Products used:
Poorboy's World Spray and Wipe
Poorboy's World Bold N Bright
Poorboy's World Bold N Bright Gel
Generic Tire Brush
a couple Cotton towels
an old Microfiber Cloth
Here is the driver's side tire and wheel
the tire sprayed with Bold N Bright
the brush I am using (bought years ago)
.
tire after being scrubbed
now I sprayed the wheel with Spray and Wipe
half way into wiping the wheel with a clean cotton towel
wheel and tire finished
on to the passenger side of the truck ... this time I decided to do the wheel first and then the tire ...
again, I sprayed the wheel liberally with Spray and Wipe
let the Spray and Wipe dwell for a few seconds and then wipe with a clean cotton cloth
This tire will be done with Bold N Bright Gel ...
the advantage of the gel is less over spray to clean up after ...
this is about the amount needed to clean and dress a tire
spread it around a little and then scrub the tire well
here is the finished product
if you want you can apply a second coat with a foam applicator or brush
I use an old microfiber cloth to do a light wipe and buff of the wheel when finished. Another note, this is only a maintenance of a wheel, those driving in winter conditions with salt and sand on the road, will eventually need to do a thorough washing to clean the back side of the wheel.
thanks for looking and please let me know if you have any questions
