ArmorAll is very bad for the environment, it is like oil and runs with water down the storm drains into streams, lakes and finally the ocean. That is why I use as little of it as possible, I do not just spray it onto the tires, this wastes a lot of this expensive oil. I used to spray it onto a clean, lint free cloth and rub that onto the tires, but this method leaves residue on your hands. Now, I have found an applicator. 99 Cents at any auto store. Place the ArmorAll nozzel against the sponge and spray a small amount onto the sponge part and rub this on the tire. It works very well and fills all the nooks & crannies in the lettering and tire detail.

This will save you money because you will not use as much ArmorAll and save many fishes. The handle will keep your hands clean. After I apply, I roll my box two feet forward or backward and apply ArmorAll to the part of the tire that was near the ground. Whenever I see a car with shiny tires, I look for the part of the tire that was at the bottom when the ArmorAll was applied. I can always spot witch part of the tire was in that 'flat spot'. I also ArmorAll the inside walls of my tires when possible, if the car is up on a lift, it is easy. Once, so far, I removed each wheel and cleaned and waxed the steel wheel so dirt and brake dust will just slide right off. Notice the showroom shine behind my hubcaps.
