How do you do this and what do you use? ➰ in car accesori shops they usually have some tire products just look for "tire vinyl" or "tire shine" what you will be looking for is a usually a spray bottle usually they advertise it as wet look on tires and you just spray it on a cloth and wipe it on wait for it to try and do a few layers if you want to effect better and let it it settle for an hour or more it also works for the fenders and gives it a more deep look insted of grey plastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will make the tires slippery, so they might spin out from you on a fast turn etc. Dangerous on cars tires, even more disastrous for motorcycles and of course on Mini/Pro... And do not use anything with silicone on rubber - it will damage/dry out the tires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn’t occur to me that it could cause slipping. ➰ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vik's Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 @Rocky Romero Even though me being a detail maniac I am still cautious when using tire pneu/dressing from Swisswax (on the cars), let alone using some generic off-the-shelf stuff...
