Just used it for the first time today and had great results. It doesn't attract dust an dirt to tires, and it smells like a pina colada:yay.

A+ on product. I also am about to order the QD+:rockon

Interesting. Mine smells like coconut.
Great product for tires. If you spray it on and use a brush, it will do a good job of cleaning unless the tire is really bad. I haven't needed to clean the tires on our vehicles since I started using the BnB.
I spray it on, use the brush,then wipe off the BnB with an old terry towel. Leaves a dry, matte finish which is just what I want.
 
I caution you on one thing!

That pina colada can be additive :D:D


I use it on my wells it makes them look like new!!
 
I like it in engine compartments too ... if it's not too dirty and in need of an APC/ Degreaser, then just spray it all over and walk away :bigups
 
I just picked up some of this for the first time. I can't wait to use it, hopefully today. Is the cleaning power enough that wiping with a towel can take care of the tire in one app? Or do you rinse with water after scrubbing and then dress it?

I degreased the tire with palmolive dish soap and a degreaser, then rinsed, then applied the tire dressing with a tire swipe and scrub brushed in in.

If the tire is bad enough for me to decide not to be lazy, I clean it with APC. Then dress with BnB.
Normally I just use BnB with a paint brush and finished.

I spray it on, scrub the tire with a medium bristle brush and wipe the tire dry with an old cotton terry towel.
Since I do this every time I wash the vehicle, it isn't a problem cleaning the tire with just the BnB.
I don't like shiny tires so the matte finish I get when I wipe off the BnB is just what I'm looking for.
 
Even for my personal vehicles, I clean the tire first with car wash soap and/or an APC (4:1 or 1:1). I then go back around with the BnB in a spray bottle and spray the tire and agitate with one of the wheel brushes.

What APC do you use? I used some Megs APC 4:1 and I am worried it is a bit strong for tires but it needed something since normal car wash nor ONR using a sponge could remove the dirt.
 
FWIW, I have never had any luck cleaning tires without the use of a brush.
If I use a brush, any of several products have done a good job of cleaning.

i agree with Charles ... a sponge won't cut it for tire cleaning ... a good stiff brush is usually needed :)

I have/use a number APCs including (in no particular order) PB's, Meguiar's (the discountinued citrus based one - can't remember the name and I'm not at home. Good enough that I bought several gallons before it was discontinued.), Simple Green, Awesome (available locally at the Dollar Tree chain), Orange Blast (available locally at many W-M stores), P21S TAW and the list goes on and on and on :redface:

I haven't found a cleaner that was "too strong" for tires. In all of my years, I have never had a tire failure resulting from using too strong of a cleaner. And I lived in the era of white walls. :)

I agree with Charles and Steve, a moderately stiff tire brush is essential for getting tires their cleanest.
