Lettering on tires.
I haven't been able to find anything on MOL about it, but the lettering on my tires is fading fast, besides a bleach pen i don't know what to think of using. Any ideas?

APC would work nicely on both the tire and white lettering.Nick

Re: Lettering on tires.
I haven't ever seen RWL really "fade," but not get thoroughly cleaned. If the APC doesn't work (it should), Eagle One Wheel and Tire Cleaner will sure do the trick!

Try Westley's Bleach White. It has always worked wonders for me.

I used to use SOS pads on my moms' Olds Cutlass with white stripe tires, did a good job long as you don't get carried away with the scrubbing.Originally posted by Andy M. View Postbrillo pad on white letters??????Philippians 2:14 - Do all things without grumbling or questioning,Comment

Re: Lettering on tires.
In the past I used this, then added bleche white with it. Like he mentioned just don't get carried away, as part of what you are doing is abrading the darker material right off the tire.Originally posted by Nappers View Post2018 Subaru Outback 3.6R Touring - Crystal White PearlComment

Yeah, SOS pads are good, though I would just try the APC first.2017 Subaru WRX Premium - WR BlueComment

Re: Lettering on tires.
I vote for Westley's Bleche White. It will really get your lettering white again.
I once put swirls in my paint just to see what it looked like.
I don't always detail cars, but when I do, I prefer Meguiar's.
Remove swirls my friends.Comment

Re: Lettering on tires.
I'll add another vote for Westley's Bleach White
Always gets the raised white letters on one of my cars and the white walls on another car perfectly white. One one of my cars, with the white walls, the car also has factory sidepipe exhaust system that blows out pretty much right at the rear tires and always dirties up the whitewalls a lot and very quickly. The Westley's cleans it up better than anything i've ever triedWhat am I, fly-paper for morons?Comment

Washing in the rain is the best. You don't have to spend all of that time drying!Originally posted by Zuke View Post
