    What are you guys using to clean your tires? (not the rim)
    Looking to remove old tire shine and desert powder dirt.

    Thanks

    I use Black Magic Bleche-Wite Tire Cleaner and it works pretty good on the tire to remove dirt, grime, oil and old tire shine.
    I tried the Chemical Guys stuff and it did not work much for the tire only.

    For the tires I use chemical guys nonsense invisible all purpose cleaner. Not only does it work well for the tires but you can use it on wheel wells and interior, just be sure to dilute a touch. I like it because I used to use Wesley’s bleach white but it always dried everything out after time. I scrub my tires with a medium firmness brush and the nonsense cleaner and let the tires air dry, after that I can shine them or leave them bare. I had some nasty looking tires after a vacation but you can see they came out perfect 9BD203B0-7555-45E3-B919-FCEDEDD4770C.jpg48006823-EB2B-408D-9F61-1B452A3D103C.jpg

    Get you some of that cleaner. I bought a gallon and have been mixing it w water. Although when they are that dirty you’ll need full strength.

    Superclean is really cheap and really good on anything. Dilute it to whatever your using it on on tires full strength. Its like 6 bucks for a gallon. Cant beat that and if you didnt like the results it was only 6 bucks compared to other brands being 20 bucks and beyond. And you still could use it for a range of things.
