Ceramic Tire Dressing is Griot's Garage ceramic-based dressing for tires and exterior trim. It goes on as a spray and wipes level, drying to a rich satin finish that Griot's says lasts weeks. The ceramic formula does more than darken rubber: it repels water, chemicals, dirt, UV rays and other pollutants, so the sidewall and the trim around it are protected rather than just dressed.
The formula is non-sling and fast drying, so it stays where you put it instead of flinging onto the paint on the first drive. Part number 10842 is the 22 oz spray; Griot's sells the identical formula as gallon 10856. Note that this is a dressing, not a cleaner - it is the finishing step after the wheels and tires have been washed, where Heavy-Duty Wheel Cleaner (11027) is the product that strips brake dust off the wheel itself.

Directions
- Wash and dry the wheels and tires first. Griot's recommends prepping bare rubber with Rubber Cleaner or Rubber Prep before you dress a tire.
- Spray Ceramic Tire Dressing onto the tire sidewall or the trim you are treating.
- Wipe to spread it evenly - the formula is designed for spray-and-wipe application.
- Repeat panel by panel; the fast-drying, non-sling formula does not need to be buffed off.
