Cleaning Whitewalls
 

What do you guys like best for cleaning whitewalls? I just dropped the freshened engine back in my Dad's '53 BelAir and have a few things to do before I deliver it to him. (he's on his way back to Indiana from winter in the south, so the race is on! )


Tires yellowed from a couple years of sitting around.


Thanks,


Bill

I've had good luck with Bleche Wite as well. Like any other cleaner be careful not to apply in direct sunlight or on hot surfaces as it will stain - especially on aluminum wheels/trim. I've also used SOS pads for really stubborn stains too.

Looks like a beautiful 53!

Thank guys, I'll give that stuff a try. It's been awhile since I did whitewalls. The '53 is a twin to the car dad had when he was dating, then marrying my mom, so it's quite the nostalgia trip for them. He's 87 now and still loves his cars. (He just ordered a C8 Z51 Vette too LOL)

Like Jake said, SOS pads work good. That's all I use!!

X3 on the Bleche Wite. That's all I've ever used on white letter tires too.

That is awesome! We should all be so lucky to be 87 and still enjoying cars!!

I can only hope my kids want to help me with "trivial" things if I get that old. You are a good Son.

Either Wesley's Bleche white or good old Comet cleanser.
