Anyone have a recommendation for a sidewall cleaner that doesn't sling black spots all over my entire truck? I've tried stuff in a jar, spray on stuff, take it to a detailer and he tried his best stuff, but everything I've tried always slings up on my paint. I've tried letting each product dry overnight with no difference. I'm just tired of having black spots all over my paint. If you've got something that works for sure, let me know and where to get it. Thanks!

I usually wipe down the tires before I drive the truck after spraying the tires. I still get some spots on the truck but not too bad.

I used to use Black Magic tire foam and had the same problem. Now I switched to Black Magic spray and have never had a problem again. I just spray it on and let it sit for a few minutes and then wipe off the excess. I've had good luck with it.

303 Aerospace Protectant. 100% UV protection, plus if you get any on your paint, that's a good thing, cause it's good for that too!

I have used Pledge funiture polish in the spray can. No mess on the truck, and even repells dust. Works great.

Yup, even use it on the plastic part of the front bumper...makes bug removal a breeze.

With it on my tires, I can travel the mile plus road to my cabin which is sometime powder and simply hose off the tire and voula (no clue how to spell that, but ******* spelin...whoo-lah)they are clean!

I use Westleys bleach white, with a stiff bristled hand brush. It really gets the white letters white as well as cleans all the junk off the black parts. I do not use it every time, just when it needs it. Other times I just use the brush with some of the carwash soap I am using on the rest of the truck. After you are done washing the truck and wheels/tires. Spray whatever tire shine/dressing you choose on the tires and take the truck around the block for a short trip before you dry it. This will get all the water out of the holes in the wheels as well as all the mirrors and other body crevasses (sp). If you get some dressing on the paint then you will get it off when you dry the truck. Just my $.02.

I agree with useing Westley's but when I spray the tires with anything to make them shiny or blacker it seems to make a mess on the white lettering.

I use Eagle One All Wheel and Tire cleaner for cleaning the tires and wheels and it does an awesome job. It cleans the white lettering with just the sponge. I use to use Westley's for the tires but this is much easier. I highly recommend you guys try it.
