The common complaint that users have is tire dressing sling.Tire dressing sling is very time consuming to clean up and can lead to the staining of exterior components. The issue is that most users do not know how to properly apply a solvent based tire dressing.
A solvent based tire dressing just like any other dressing, will not adhere to a dirty surface. Surface preparation is the most important part of the entire process. Using a degreaser is the best method to ensure complete removal of any residue on the tire surface. Without 100 percent removal of all surface contamination, any tire dressing whether water-based, non-silicone or solvent based will sling.91% Isopropyl Alcohol works excellent as a final cleaner AFTER DEGREASERING AND/IF MOLD RELEASE HAS TO BE REMOVED. This is a final step and SHOULD NOT REPLACE DEGREASING OF TIRE!
The most common issue we see is that the user is unaware of a mold release that is typically still on the tire and never removed prior to the tire dressing.A tire mold release will not allow any dressing to stick to the tire properly and will result in dressing sling. Mold release can be seen as a waxy like white or near clear chalky residue.You can typically also feel this film on your fingertips.
We suggest using our Greenway's Tar B Gone to remove any mold release from the tire sidewall.If you do not have a mold release still present on your tire, do NOT use Greenway's Tar B Gone. Use one of Greenway's premium degreasers to remove any residue quickly and easily.
Greenway's Magic Blue is a long-lasting solvent-based silicone tire dressing designed to produce a very high gloss shine on any type of tire.Magic Blue will quickly dry without producing a sticky finish, therefore attracting less dust. Magic Blue is ready to use and is fortified with the highest-grade silicone content. Magic Blue tire shine will not sling and helps prevent tires from cracking or becoming discolored.
Since Magic Blue is a solvent-based silicone dressing, it can easily be applied by directly spraying it onto the tire or with a foam applicator. We recommend applying Magic Blue with our foam tire applicator in order to produce the most even shine without creating overspray. By applying Magic Blue with a foam applicator, you will also have no product waste.
Magic Blue never should be applied to the engine components. Magic Blue is highly fortified with silicone and the silicone content may ruin some sensors. Greenway's Protect It All is great for engine detailing and wheel well detailing as it is non silicone, cost effective and will not attract residue.
