"Hello today we are going to talk about cleaning road dirt from your tires. This is a very important process in cleaning the vehicle so what I am going to do is just give you some general guidelines to make sure that you adhere to and successfully clean your tires and make sure that there aren't any hazardous materials embedded in your tire. The first thing you always want to do is inspect your tire, look at it to make sure there aren't any nails in it or anything like that that have been accumulated during your driving and after you have inspected it you are just going to spray it down. I am going to take my sprayer here and then just spray the tire down. This helps to loosen the dirt before we start brushing it off with our brush and now that it is wet we are going to apply our wheel cleaner or our tire cleaner and basically this is just an all purpose cleaner used for cleaning any kind of surface area. I'm going to take my brush, tire brush, and just brush my cleaner into there. You see the suds start to foam and also get the wheels because a lot of your road dust accumulates on your wheels and continue to brush and sometimes if the cleaner starts to dry you'll hit it again with your sprayer and make sure you get around the lug nuts and then just spray the tire off and you see that your tire is clean. You will take a microfiber towel and wipe the towel down, wipe the wheel area down and now what you have is a tire that is clean from any road dust and you're ready to apply the tire dressing of your choice."
