Re: Cheaper tire dressing alternatives

It all depends on the look you are going for. Eagle WET is very good tire dressing, but like I said, it leaves the tires with a very shiny/sticky look that seems out of place to me on some set ups. It also picks up dirt and doesnt like to apply very evenly (even with a tire dressing sponge). Used antifreeze is free (you would have disposed of it) and it makes the tires a rich black without any sheen to it. An old mechanic I used to work for showed me the trick and kept a 5 gal bucket of it from other cars just for the task.
