Firstly a deep clean with a nylon brush and then spray with an all purpose cleaner. Rinse and dry. To dress a matt finish looks better and will last longer, plus is more natural. Einszett do an amazing rubber dresser. Or for a more blinging look go for Finish Kare Top Coat Tyre dressing.

This - it is better to clean the tyre properly, before applying a dressing. To finish I use Swissvax Pneu, it's expensive, but when applied with a brush you hardly use any, so it lasts ages.

This. Looks fantastic and lasts a lot longer than the spray on stuff too.

The meguires tyre gell is ok pretty long lasting, just apply mine with a sponge.

The key is to get the tyre clean before you apply the product

Make sure you clean your tyre with wheel cleaner and give it a scrub with a brush. Also make sure its totally dry before applying tyre treatment.

The autoglym tyre dressing is pretty good
