I have recently joined with a company that details the cars for large auto shows. One of the problem they have run into is that we have to have the tires including the tread look brand new like they have never been driven on. We had accomplished this in the past by using clear spray paint to paint the treats. This has worked great but we are looking for a less toxic way to do it.

The issue is that the cars are on display carpets and floors so the product we use can`t mark these surface when we move the cars out. That is why we don`t use tire dressing on the treads.

We have heard of using floor wax because it dry and doesn`t mark, but the problem is if the floor wax falls onto anything but the tire it stains that surface ie. display floors and carpets.

Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated. Thank you.

Check out this plastic/rubber coating from CarPro. I think it may be good as it doesn`t leave anything greasy that would leave marks on the floors.

Not sure how feasible it would be, but another idea would be to wrap the tires in something before you move the cars out.
