Expert Analysis

Classic silicone-based tire dressing utilizing polydimethylsiloxane as the primary film-forming agent, supported by multiple surfactants for emulsification and spreading. The silica-infused formula likely enhances durability and provides better adhesion to tire surfaces.

Key Differentiators

  • Silica-infused formula for enhanced durability
  • Low-sling formulation
  • Banana taffy scent
  • Multiple surfactant system for even application

Potential Concerns

  • Eye irritation hazard requires protective equipment
  • Silicone-based products can attract dirt over time
  • Contains skin sensitizing fragrance component
