Bold N Bright Gel application tip
So with my new tires they have an aggressive shoulder and upper side wall with the rest smooth and raised letters.

I tried applying with the Carrand tire brush. It left brush marks on the smooth sections. Then I tried a tire swipe which took forever. Then used a combo of both, a major hassel.
So what did I do for my All-Terrains?
I grabbed my HF Detail Paint Gun I used for shooting Opti. Filled the air compressor, set it to 40psi, and filled the hopper with some BnB.
I used less product and application was a breeze.

So BnB gel will work via spray gun delivery.
You may say, why not just get the liquid?
Well, I prefer gels over liquid. Plus the air gun delivers a smooth consistent spray pattern and I don`t have to clean over spray from the rim.
Bonus: also makes undercarriage dressing easy, and with less mess like product run off on the garage floor or driveway.

Lol, it is a time saver and I got mine for like $10. Just flush with water and dry to keep it from clogging.

Thanks for the thread, Tuxedo.
Now I know a way to do the all terrains on both the Jeep and the Yaris.
Just gotta get me a compressor and spray gun. Oh no. More stuff to buy.
Re: Bold N Bright Gel application tip
nice work .. tire looks great ... we sell it by the drum to tunnel washes that do the same as you, but i never thought of a personal size sprayer ... the 55 gallon drum would be the most efficient way :)

Hmmmm....55 gallons....I shouldn`t, the wife thinks I`m crazy as it is. I could imagine the looks I`d get when people ask what oil is in the drum. Then I tell them it`s not oil, it`s tire dressing.

Your, welcome for around $120 you could have a decent new set up, or cheaper searching CL for a compressor. That Kobalt one is great for mobil and doing tires.

Looks great !!! I have an aggesive sidewall like your on my Goodyear Duratracs. Dressing them is a real pain when I use Bold and Bright (liquid). I think I am going to try either the Carrand brush or a paint brush to get into all the crevices. Wish I had access to a paint sprayer.

If you have power access you can get a setup you can even use mobil for around $120. If you want info PM me.
The Carrand works great wit liquids. I use when I apply Hyper Dress, or BF AIO trim n tire.

Yeah I`ll pm it since ACC sells the Opti sprayer, just to be on the safe side.
That tank will work, just adjust the regulator to back the pressure down.
