Wheelwheel Dressing that Lasts

[mobiledynamics]

I`ve never come across a wheelwheel dressing that lasts.

The last product I had high hopes was the Tuf Shine Trim Coating. It lasted a bit longer but nothing marginally better than other products...

On my SUV, which has a bit more *exposed to the eyes* wheelwellls, this detail on look is more critical than let`s say, the sports car.
I currently just use the whole ~lot~ of tire dressings that I don`t use anymore which will probably take forever for me to use up..

For the garage queen, I tend to use Adams Undercarriage Spray. Been using that forever, and I like the look it gives.

Just need something a bit more durable...

Have you tried CG bare bones? That`s what I use and it seems to last fairly long.

If you take the time to prep the wheel wells well ( ), Sonus Trim & Motor Coat does a fairly good job of lasting. If you are willing to put up with a little bit more tedious application, Ultima Trim & Tire Guard is pretty amazing!

Since my cars` wells are plastic lined, I use Ultima or Solution Finish. It does not take as long as you think. I will do this 2x per year and then using a tire dressing like PB Bold n Bright in between.

Tough call. I use megs hyper dressing 4:1 SOWA. Leaves a perfect wheel well. But being water based, it only lasts so long. Wonder if anyone has tried clear coating their wheel wells?

Hi Todd -

I have a 4, maybe 5 year old bottle of UTTP. Tried is 2X on my tires, went back to my favorite Z16. Hell, I still prefer the look of Z16 for tires, but Tuff Shine is more maintenance free. UTTP for me, lasted just as long as the others in my stash

PAD - I have a bottle of Hyper Dressing as well. It`s one of many retired tire dressings I use on the wheelwells...

Depends on the clearnance between the tire and the wheel well. Some car`s/trucks its fairly easy to get in there, whilst others are a nightmare.

I use CG Barebones for temporary solution when its dry out.


But Ultima T&TG as well as Sonus T&MK are my two options for longer lasting solutions. Of the 2 I prefer Sonus T&MK due tot the spray on and and walk away application.

Prevent your tires from throwing water and debris against the wheel wells and they`ll always look nice.

I keep it simple and cheap. Spray with tire foam and agitate with brush at every wash. My wells are clean and black most of the nice weather months. During winter I don`t care.

I use UTTG and it seems to work well. I did 3 coats originally and it`s held up well. I don`t really drive in really nasty conditions though.

I use Megs All Season Dressing, works well and lasts a long time.

That might be possible with a garage/trailer queen, but not for a daily driver.

I just picked up some Megs Hyper Dressing. I am going to dilute it at 3:1 and see how it works on my wheel wells and engine compartment.

Get yourself a HVLP 2oz detail gun. Simplist way to dress everything, suspension parts, frame rails everything under there with a nice thin coat, no wasted product and drips on the drive. A coat of clear paint would be a nightmare once it starts chipping and peeling.

Meguiar`s Hyperdressing at 3:1 was my go to dressing for years. If you look up my REALLY old details, it was what I went with for a couple of reasons:Easy to use and it smells GREAT! I always like using a great smelling product last and leaving the car with a detailing perfume.
