Thanks Bill.  I'll order a bottle & give a report on how it handles northwest weather.   :icon_smile_wink:

Well, if it can handle the NJ acid rain & other assorted pollution, it should hold up well in the northwest I think.  :cheers:  :lol:

Neal, I use this GG product on tires:
http://www.griotsgarage.com/product/long-lasting+tire+dressing+16+ounces.do?sortby=ourPicks&from=Search

When applied with a sponge it does not sling or give an overly shiny appearance. It has a thicker consistency over other dressings. The tire will have a little shine to it, but not in your face like bukkake shine.  :eek2:
I haven't tried their Tire Rejuvenator, so I don't know how it works.

The other product I referenced above (RaggTopp) I use on vinyl tops.  :yesnod:   :2thumbs:

I use this stuff.

Work great, last fairly long and gives a natural new look to the tires.

I use Griot's Tire Dressing.  After scubbing the side wall I apply it with a sponge.   Let it dry for 10 or 20 minutes then wipe down with a dry cloth.  This removes almost all the shine but leaves the rubber looking very uniform and dark, almost new looking.   I do not like the dressings that are black or shiny.  I don't like the black dyes that some car wash places use because they usually put too much on and it slings off the tire onto the side of the car.

Thanks guys I'll give Griot's a try, I just want to darken them back to normal. I'm stuck with these rim's and tires for quite a while there is just to much rubber left to pull them off for a nicer up grade yet. ($$$$!)  :2thumbs:
