Cleaning your tires doesn't require much effort, but many people actually don't realize they are stripping their car's rubber of protective coatings when they use certain cleaners. In fact, any soap that has a degreasing agent can cause dry rot if continuously used to clean your tires. You should only use cleaners marked safe for rubber. If you do clean your tires properly, they'll likely last longer and reduce vulnerabilities from debris and dry rot getting into your tread.
The first step when washing your car's tires is to pick a good cleaner marked safe for use on rubber and all wheels. Then, you'll use a nylon bristle brush to clean out your tires. Additionally, after cleaning and rinsing your tires, you'll want to use a microfiber towel to dry off your tires and rims. This is an important step to prevent dry rot.
If you want to protect your car tires further, you can buy a protectant wax or spray to coat your tires in after drying them. If you're looking for tire services in Milford, stop by .g. Burton & Co. Inc. to get the best rates on tire services.
