How to Clean and Shine Goodyear Tires in Tinley Park

by | Jul 5, 2024 | Automotive

Tires are bound to get dirty, muddy, mucky, and greasy from time to time. Between frequent driving and inclement weather, there’s really no way around this. However, there is a specific and effective way to clean tires. In order to prolong the life of tires and have them looking fresh and clean, follow these simple tips.

Wash Them

Pollutants from the ground work their way into the pores of the rubber that makes the tire. When this occurs, the tire becomes gray and dirty. It also shortens the life of the tire. In order to remove the grime, thoroughly wet each tire with a garden hose. From there, evenly spray a degreaser on each tire. Make sure the degreaser covers the entire tire. Allow the degreaser to sit on the Goodyear Tires in Tinley Park for approximately 30 minutes. Once 30 minutes have passed, use a stiff-bristled brush and agitate the wall of each tire in a clockwise motion. Once each tire is foamy and frothy, rinse them off with the garden hose. You can now either choose to let the tires air dry naturally or move on to shining the tires.

Shine Them

Now that the tires are spotless, it is time to give them that brand new shine. To do this, a tire dressing applicator and tire dressing are needed. To prepare the dressing, simply pour the mixture into the associated spray bottle. Fill the spray bottle to its halfway point with the dressing. From there, dilute the dressing. Fill the remainder of the bottle with clean water. Use the applicator to methodically spray each inch of every tire with the dressing. Allow the dressing to sit on the tires for about 45 minutes before taking a microfiber cloth and kneading the mixture into the rubber. Knead the dressing into the rubber by working your hands in a clockwise motion. Lastly, allow the tires to air-dry.

Follow these two straightforward and uncomplicated steps to have Goodyear tires in Tinley Park looking clean and spotless. If further assistance is needed in determining how to properly care for or clean tires, contact VIP Tire Corporation.
