We Say
3M Tyre Restorer is a low cost entry level tyre dressing that offers far better performance than the low quality tyre dressings typically found in car parts stores. 3M Tyre Restorer goes on very easily with no fuss or mess, and produces a subtle looking finish that can easily be adjusted in terms of the shine level. The formula gives a dark satin look after the initial application, but if you prefer more shine a second application ten minutes after the first will dry to give a low gloss finish. Durability is pretty good for a water-based dressing; under typical British weather conditions each application usually lasts for a minimum of two weeks, and if multiple layers are applied then three weeks is achievable.

Description
3M Tyre Restorer is a low cost water-based tyre dressing that contains no solvents or petroleum distillates of any kind, meaning that it will not degrade your tyres in any way, even when used on a regular basis. Unlike many rival tyre dressings, it will not leave behind a greasy or oily residue that attracts dust and grime. Instead, your tyres will be left dry to the touch with an attractive low-key finish that will last for up to two weeks at a time. Designed to be wiped or misted on, the amount of shine given by 3M Tyre Restorer can easily be tailored to your personal preference. The formula gives a rich matt look after the initial application, but if you prefer more shine, a second application shortly after the first will dry to give a low gloss finish.

How To Use
For best results, ensure your tyres are spotlessly clean and dry before use. Only 2-3 squirts of 3M Tyre Restorer are required per tyre, and these should be applied to the face of a either a Meguiar's Soft Foam Applicator Pad or a Flexipads Split Foam Applicator Pad and then wiped on to the tyre as thinly and evenly as possible; you will be amazed at how far you can stretch the resulting film around the tyre without needing to add any more product. Once applied, leave it to dry fully for 30 minutes before driving. If this is not possible, wipe each tyre down gently with a PB Utility Towel to remove any excess and minimise the risk of sling.
