Not trying to do a commercial but I just got this thing and love it. No more overspray on the wheel. Found it Amazon, a little pricey at $25 but works perfect.



Anyone else got something to share?

MTM Hydro PF22.2 foam cannons. They have a wide mouth which makes filling a lot easier and are the highest quality on the market by far and you can get replacement parts. Pricey at around $100 each

Also love P&S Double Black Pearl car soap, foams up really nicely and smells awesome.

No. It has a little disc that fits into the other side of the wheel. You can see the clear plastic tubing that you use to secure it.

I need a tire wet that actually stays on. I buy the value pack of black magic or whatever it's called from Costco and 1 rain and that stuff is gone.

Gotta clean the tire first. Tire cleaner gets the old **** off. The new tire wet will last and show more.

Exterior - I use Turtle Wax Ceramic 3 in 1 detailer once a month after a wash, seems to do a good job extending the life of the wax. Doesn't take long to go panel by panel just spraying it on and then wiping clean with a microfiber towel.

Leather - Chemical Guys leather cleaner, followed by their conditioner.

Glass - Invisible Glass, cheap, does a great job, and it's ammonia free so you can use it on tinted windows as well.

I like the Zaino Z - 16 tire gloss. It doesn't seem to sling down the side of my truck like the others do.

Good luck. This is an area where 1) few products actually work the way people want them to, and 2) they aren't recommended by the OEM anyway. Water based dressings are preferred but don't really last -- their longevity is measured in hours. The petroleum based dressings, while lasting a bit longer, starts attracting dirt soon after its used and can gunk up. You often have a harder time getting the tire clean the next time without realizing it.

I don't recommend tire dressings. Just get your tire as clean as possible. Unlike the poster that recommended Dark Fury, I say stay away from degreasers on tires -- another thing most OEMs don't like. Now, I like Dark Fury and Superior Products in general, and there may be a use case every now and then for DF or other degreaser. But try to clean your tire as best you can with an alkaline detergent -- or a pH "balanced" one with a all-purpose cleaner added.

If you really want clean tires, get yourself a tornador cleaner that hooks up to an air compressor. Those things work very well on tires. Takes a little longer, but it gets into groves unlike virtually any other tool/product. The tornador is actually designed for interiors, so you have a multi-purpose tool.

Clean tires get dirty as soon as you pull out of your driveway. Spending a lot of time and money on them is, well, nonsensical.
