I went out to wash ma car yesterday, and i noticed that some guy next to me was spraying his tires and rims with WD-40. they looked really nice and black... but maybe it was just cuz he had just sprayed it lol.

does anybody else do this?
wouldnt using armor-all or something else like that work better? (thats wat i use..)

 

Don't put any substance on tires unless it's manufacturer recommended for tires. Oily stuff tends to degrade rubber.

WD-40 doesn't really dry, its just going to pick up dust.

 

yeah i thought it would make the tire's life a lot shorter.
and isint WD-40 more expensive lol
i just wanted to make sure i wasnt missing out on something. lol

 

I use WD40 on my tires only when I rub something. Helps hide the small rash. Then I return to actual tire products. I do use WD40 to clean the inside of my cars. Dash and all. Looks better longer, and doesn't dry everything up like armor-all

 

yeah i heard of people using WD40 for like whipping the inside of the car.
but never really tried it. i think im might give it a try tho. i do notice that armor all doesnt last much.


this is pretty cool i thought i would share wit u guys http://www.wd40.com/files/pdf/wd-40_2042538679.pdf
it actually says to shine up tires and clean tire sidewalls lol.

 

WD40 will last longer, and gives a damn good shine.

Be careful, don't spray on steering wheel. That crap stays slick for a long time. Uber dangerous.
