Why Car Detailers Can't Get Enough of This Trending Tool in 2024!
In this video I put the biggest detailing trending Tool to the test and see what the fuss is all about. My Brush came from Temu and cost me £2. The drawback is the slow delivery time hence the price. Below are some other brands that may have similarities but offer faster delivery.

I dress my tyres with a brush, having tried sponges but prefer the ease of use, application and finish I get from bristles. My preferred product is Autoglym Rubber Plus. I use a decorators plastic paint pot with two compartments, one for the product and another in which to stand the brush after use so the brush isn’t standing in product. It also has a brush hole above each compartment so you can seal the pot and prevent / reduce spillage, and there’s a brush groove in the divider so you can wipe off the excess product. Bought from B & Q, this for me was a game changer. I’m no longer in the trade but still use these products and method on my own cars.
Been using the CarScope one with their Tyre Ink and never had a bristle fall out.
I still use paint brush with wet look gel in a tub which works well for me 👍👍
After trying all sorts of applicators, for the last 4 years I have been using dollar store green scrub sponges on the soft side to apply dressing. It costs 10 cents per sponge and they last a long time. It:s really fast to apply too, about 20 seconds per tire. I don't use a gel. I use Meguiars All season dressing, a liquid dressing that I spray into the sponge. It uses very little product, about 4 sprays per tire so a liter bottle lasts for months in my detailing business. I always use a microfiber towel to wipe down the excess after I am done with all 4 tires. The last thing I want is for the dressing to sling all over the detailed car!
As a bit of a hack, I currently used an old shoe shine sponge, which comes with the reservoir into which I dip the sponge (it's also the lid, which keeps the sponge damp) for any tyre solution used. I did used to use the brush and dip method during my professional days though. Back then, I put the solution in the equivalent of a tupperware container to keep any leftover solution.

Thats a great tip!!
Maguiar's Endurance Tire Gel is my favorite tire dressing. Next is Tire Shine from Turtle Wax.
I have the carscope version of this, I have had it about 4 years now all the bristles come away around the outside. To be fair it gets used on my 4x4 tyres… not so good with meguires ultimate, but works well with car pro Perl neat, IW candy, and watery ones like M&K tyre go all over your hands like you say 😂
One of the best handling cars ever made right there, the chassis on those are something truly special for an everyday car! Incase you didn’t know :)) I love mine, also with regards to getting the gel on the bottom of the tyres I watched a video on a product that’s designed to go under the wheels so you don’t get your knuckles scraped off I’ll see if I can find the link, maybe you could do a review on them! :)
These type of brushes are great for cleaning emblems especially when paired with water spot remover. They are firm enough for scrubbing but delicate enough that they won't scratch...perfect! I use one for dressing leather and I also have one for cleaning around all the buttons and fiddly bits on the dashboard/instrument panel.
I use an old detailing brush and have a small pot or dressing. And use a rag to wipe excess off. Way better than a sponge.
I bought three of these from Car Scope at the start of Lock Down and have never looked back even giving one to a car detailer as a wee gift. I have never had an issue with hair loss apart from my own head and unless I am changing product I have never rinsed it out. In my opinion the detailing product of the Century.
I use Tenzi Gum Extra high gloss tyre dressing. 1L trigger spray for 18.99. I use half of a yellow car wash sponge to apply. I flip cars for a side hustle and it’s plenty good enough for that. I also apply the same way on my own car.
I love mine, I just spray some Turtle Wax Hybrid Tyre Shine on and then wipe it on the tyre. I do load it up for the first tyre but then use less on the rest

I still to this day prefer to use a 2” cheap paint brush for tyre dressing as the width goes round the tyre pretty much! I also use auto smart high style from time to time but also use on occasion Maguires tyre gel .
Well.. normally I don't give away my personal secrets.. BUT.. I like your channel and I'll give you guy's a freebe.. what I use may shock a few people but here it is.. stoner care trimshine in the spray can. It sprays very accurately and believe it or not, I have tried NEARLY EVERY TIRE DRESSING ON THE MARKET. And I come back to trimshine every time!!! Just haven't found anything better. It isn't over shinny, it does not fling off, dust does not stick to it and it lasts just as long or longer than any iso2 I have tried and best of all it takes me around 15 seconds a wheel or less. And if there happens to be be an area that I oversprayed a little I take a (another secret) tile sponge that I cut into 3 pieces to remove any extra. Or to apply to any tight places I spray it directly on to the sponge.. DON'T BELIEVE ME? give it a try I promise you.. You will switch and never look back..
Thank you for the video Dave. Looks a handy tool for a couple of quid. I'm a total cheapskate and spray Aldi multi surface polish on the tyres and then lightly go round them using an old kitchen sponge 🤣. Gives them a deep satin finish.

Nothing wrong with being a cheapskate mate 😁
They are good and if you are charging the customer for maintenance or full details then the finish on the tyres makes all the difference
Ask your wife/ girlfriend/ daughter for any flat top foundation brushes they no longer need and use it for tyre dressing. I would say the shapes are quite similar. (However, Dave's brush has a better handle for tyres)

Hi Dave, I use a curved sponge with some Perl sprayed on off eBay 10 for £5. I consider these a desposable item as they get gunked up over time so it’s nice to throw them away after every 5-10 cars use a fresh one.

Started with megs gel and always go back to it. If tyres are thoroughly cleaned, still look good after many weeks. Also sponges last ages as only applying gel, not contaminated with cleaning dirt, so I use until worn out.
Reminds me of the Kiwi shoe polish sponges that were a fad years ago
For God's sake that is not bird but Pterodactyl drops ! Did you ever go to Jurassik Park Dave 🤣! Seems like british bird have hell of a intestinal transit 😆 Ok, back to the brush itself. I'd like to say it really gives you an even finish on the tires, especially if you've got a lot of lettering, grooves or whatnot. Personnaly, I am more a tire hex grip applicator combined with Gyeon Q2 Tire guy, to be honest. Nevertheless, always nice to have a feedback from professionals and car enthusiasts from all around the planet. Cheers mate 😉 Gregg

I use a spray tyre and trim dressing if i haven't detailed the wheels I'll just hold it close and spray it on or I'll use a sponge
Ive bought two, thiught I'd lost one but i had just hidden it to well, and ive used it with the Soft 99 bkack tyre wax and it works really well nbut tends to clog up a wee bit by the time you've got to the 4th tyre
Why dont use a soapbottle that has a pump and fill it up with product. And the nozzle might be easier to jam in to the brush? Just a thought.
I have a applicator sponge, with a hard plastic handle, which is ok but I will give this a try. Maybe using a tin foil tray, like a Yorkshire pudding tray will be good to dip the brush in with product 🤙🏻

Great video. I considered getting one of the (rebranded makeup) brushes, but decided to stick with my foam applicator, following up with a brush to fill the crooks and nannies. As to the problem of reaching the bottom of the tyres, get yourself some Rimmats.

Found a cheaper solution, £8.99 pair 0.5mtr plastic ramps cut in half. Raises tyres just enough. 'missed bottom' looks ridiculous!
Do you know what I find best? Using those dishwash sponges, the yellow and green ones. A quid for 12. Works brill with Meguiars endurance
I love my Alien Magic (green bristles) version. It says not to use with solvent based, but with GT Tyre Serum ive not experienced any issues. I do squirt a load of Surfex 10% immediately after, so maybe that helps
I use a cut in half polishing pad👍
Looking forward to a bird poo video. Bird poo is my most hated thing about keeping my black car in good condition. Going off topic there though , back to the tyre applicator , I just use a jumbo cut up sponge with KKD bumper and tyre liquid. I always have to roll the tyres 90 degrees as I always feel the bottom part that is in contact with the ground never gets a proper application.
@MartinBennett-rs6thrasher

Not only is that a pain but your hands/gloves= steering wheel/ shift are then covered in dressing! Cheap plastic ramps or proper rim mats are a godsend when dressing tyres.
Dab!! Dab 4 spots around the tyre, reapply a small amount to the brush and brush it round. Saves product and applies it with more consistency.
Still using one after 25 years
Its a great little brush and Temu do some decent stuff especially there wash mitts , tried some trye gel which is ok to be fair but there are better products out there for that .

Alright, bud. I almost feel off my chair. I had to put on subs. Your testing bird poo 💩. That should be interesting. Does it matter what birds 🐦 have a poo on your car. Like seabirds would have a real salty diet while woodland birds would be more into berries, etc. You know where I'm coming from Dave. I think this bird poo video needs good investigation because just think where the people with a good motors live. Then you'll have the city slickers different birds could be 2 are more videos. Make sure you keep an eye on what products and over the time duration. That poo can do some serious damage to a high value motor. Great video my friend ❤

Shaped sponges go flat under normal pressure anyway. I also find it hard on the knees. Using a low padded seat (modified creeper) helps. Don't kneel or crouch like all these people do.
Not for wheels but don’t bother buying detailing brushes for inside the car, just buy a cheap set of make-up brushes. Super soft and a much cheaper alternative. 👍

Sponge is best for applying megs gel. Clean tyres thoroughly and work product in properly, (not over applying) then no sling and looks great for weeks.
Don't like these tiny little brushes, far too small especially on suv/ 4x4 takes ages and so much product. I've tried them all and still go back to the 2/3" paint brush.
