toddj Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I've noticed Garry Deans IUDJ can be used straight as a tire dressing. Anyone ever try ONR straight as a dressing? Or interior dressing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setec Astronomy Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Well, from what I understand, you can use IUDJ as a tire dressing, I can use orange juice as a tire dressing, that doesn't mean that either of them are any good as tire dressings. Maybe Dr. G will answer this, but I'm pretty sure he would suggest you use one of his tire dressings for that. If I'm not mistaken Mr. Dean started suggesting using IUDJ for about every detailing chemical application on the vehicle...when IUDJ was his only product.

toddj Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 Good points. I'm a faithful Opti-Bond user and now plans of changing that. That said I do have some IUDJ on order just because I'm curious. And the recommended dilution ratios seem really too good to be true.

darrvao777 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 rebumping interesting, anyone ever try onrww as a mild/light tire dressing of sorts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 depending on what you expect from a tire dressing - other than cleaning, I don't see any durability or much shine from ONR on tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same...other then that ONR will clean the black plastics I dont really see ONR doing much else. Its not a dressing. Now Im not just saying this without trying it. I did use ONR today on some black plastics. I used it neat on a mf applicator and "dressed" the plastics and other then that it just cleaned it I diddnt see it do anything much to plastics...no blackening, no difference whatsoever. It looked stock as I expected it to be in the first place. Opti seal on the other hand can be used as a protectant. That leaves behind a protected slick antistatic surface that actually beads water quite nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 On the other hand, I use ONR as an interior cleaner every wash. It's not a "dressing" and I usually follow up with Protectant Plus as a treatment for leather and plastic. I have used Opti-Seal on damaged interior vinyl to darken it and reduce future UV fading....never tried on tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A&J Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 When I said opti seal can be used as a protectant I meant I meant I used it for exterior and interior plastics and leather. I never used it on tires and I dont intend to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
