Tyre Care: Clean First, Dress the Sidewall Second

A neat tyre finish starts before the dressing goes on. Cleaning first and applying dressing carefully to a dry sidewall helps you follow a straightforward routine without confusing two different products.

Tyre Cleaner and Tyre Dressing do different jobs. The cleaner is for the cleaning stage. Dressing is a separate finishing product for enhancing the appearance of a clean, dry tyre sidewall. Keeping those steps distinct makes it easier to follow the right instructions and avoid applying a finish product to a dirty surface.

Step one: clean the tyre

Use AJS Tyre Cleaner for the cleaning stage and follow its supplied product label for how to apply it. The current product listing distinguishes the cleaner from dressing and says to clean the tyre before applying a separate dressing. Do not treat the cleaner as the finishing product.

See the current directions for AJS Tyre Cleaner.

Step two: dress a clean, dry sidewall

Once the tyre is clean and completely dry, AJS Tyre Dressing can be used as the finishing step according to its label. The current product instructions describe applying it with a tyre dressing applicator sponge and spreading it evenly over the sidewall. Allow it to cure before driving. Additional layers can be used if a glossier finish is wanted.

Apply dressing to the sidewall only. Keep it away from the tyre tread, braking surfaces and vehicle controls. The applicator sponge is sold separately according to the product instructions. Read the current AJS Tyre Dressing directions before use.

Clean and finish are different jobs

Cleaner removes dirt as part of preparation. Dressing is the finishing product that enhances appearance. Applying dressing to a dirty or wet tyre skips the preparation described by the current directions. If there is residue or you are unsure about the surface, return to the product label rather than layering on more dressing.

A simple checklist

  1. Read both product labels before starting.
  2. Clean the tyre with Tyre Cleaner according to its directions.
  3. Let the tyre become completely dry.
  4. Apply Tyre Dressing evenly to the sidewall with a suitable applicator.
  5. Keep product off the tread, braking surfaces and controls, and allow it to cure before driving.
