  • tires dressing for glossy finish

    hey guys!!
    So i have been using ASD on the wheel wells and tires and love the wet look. i was looking into getting Silicone Free Dressing since the ASD has turned some tires brown which to my understanding is from the silicone.
    Does any one have pics or has had good results with
    Silicone Free Dressing?
    thanks guys!!

    silcone free dressing is alright , it leaves a nice shine. I found that other dressing like hot shine , endurance and HD last longer. SFD comes off pretty easily when wet. I use it for engine bays and wheel wells mostly. It is cheap though.

      This is called "blooming" and is normal for tires. Worse for some brands, not so for others. It has something to do will chemicals put in the tires designed to bleed out slowly to protect the tire from the ozone. I do not believe silicone has anything to do with it. Google "tire blooming" for more information.
