Tyre Brush

A stiff-bristled tyre brush for cleaning sidewalls

Road grime and old tyre dressing tend to collect around raised lettering and in the grooves on the sidewall. A tyre brush helps lift that build-up out of the rubber’s textured surface. This is especially useful on truck tyres, where there’s a wide sidewall to clean evenly.

Look for firm bristles and a handle you can grip securely. Firm bristles work loosened grime out of the rubber’s texture, while a comfortable handle lets you control the pressure as you brush along the edge of the sidewall.

FOR CAR AND TRUCK TYRES

ProGrip Tyre Brush

Our ProGrip Tyre Brush has stiff, chemical-resistant bristles and a metal-free construction. Use the full width of the brush head on the open areas of the sidewall. Use the edge of the head to work around raised lettering and into narrow grooves where dirt builds up.

How to brush truck tyre sidewalls without missing a spot

1. Rinse off sand and mud. Work on a cool tyre out of direct sunlight. Rinse along the rim as well to avoid dragging loose grit across it with the brush.
2. Loosen brown build-up. Apply tyre cleaner to the sidewall. If you’re using Wheel Cleaner from a 5- or 20-litre container, leave it to work for about 2 minutes.
3. Brush the sidewall in sections. Follow the curve of the tyre and overlap each pass slightly. Use short strokes around the lettering and grooves. Rinse the brush whenever you can see dirt trapped in the bristles.
4. Rinse the tyre thoroughly. Wash away the cleaner and loosened dirt before the product dries. If a greasy patch remains, treat that spot again and rinse it thoroughly.
