Default Tire foam??

Ok , I just bought this cleaner called "wet tire foam" coz the shiny look of my tires started to fade away, now have any of you tried these things? do they work? could it actually damage the tire faster, because I don't know what the heck is this thing made of.
Thank you for reading and sorry maybe this is a silly question.

I used that all the time after i wash and wax my car. Those thing are suppose to give your a the shine. Plus it will help your tire from cracking due to dryness. So i don't think it will damage your tire fast. I've been using it all the time and so far my tire hasn't show and sign of damage yet.

in my experience the best ones are the gels, like turtle wax tire wax, i stay away from anything thats an aerosol. good ones have UV protection

yea, I have used that stuff for a while and it hasnt hurt my tires on my civic or the 2 other cars that I had before. I know that you can also use vasoline on that stuff and it works just as good or better, one draw back though, it can be a mess if you use to much though.
