First time PERL user on tires, what's the best way to apply?

[cammyfive]

Well, this will actually be my second time to use it on my tires. I LOVE it. The first time I applied at full strength - totally undiluted - and while it did take a while to even out on my purposeful over application I'm in love with the look. I used just a standard piece of foam cut from a generic detailing foam tire block. On my next go round I'll be applying it diluted 1:1 so what is the best way to apply this to tires? For reference, I'm applying it to my 17" Acura TLX Goodyear all season touring tires, so not a super low profile but not an SUV tire obviously either. Foam block? Hex tire applicator? Tire swipes?

At 1:1 dilution you can either spray it directly on the tire, and spread it, or spray it on a foam applicator. You can also use a MF towel.

Any kind of foam is great imo. Key is not over apply, just gently wipe off any excess when done. Can layer after twenty min also

Perl at 1:1 with foam applicator is how I apply it too. I LOVE the 1:1 look.

Awesome. I'm looking forward to trying it out again. I have a foam block or two so I'll be using that.

Foam applicator here. Used to use it at full now I do 1:1. Love it!

I like the CarPro Tire "Swipe" Applicator and I apply it Neat...but that me.

These Tire Swipe applicators are a must. So unexpensive and you dress tires so easily with it. Can be machine washed time after time as well.

These are nice...I switch back and forth from these and the Carrand dressing brush...both work great with PERL.
