Part Number: 235500
Surface: Tires
Function: Maintain and protect
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Introduction
The UAE’s harsh environmental conditions trigger a chemical reaction known as blooming, leaving a chalky brown film that ages tires quickly when neglected. Enter the SONAX Xtreme Tire Gloss Gel (500mL), which creates a protective layer on your tire surface to prevent oxidation which in turn significantly reduces blooming. It acts as a dual-action treatment and physical shield, penetrating deep into the microscopic pores of the tire sidewalls to rebuild its elasticity and restore its deep black tire shine.What The Product Does
SONAX Xtreme Tire Gloss Gel does a multi-purpose job as an advanced aesthetic enhancer and a rich rubber conditioner that penetrates deep into the rubber and treats its pores. It also creates a protective layer that serves as a hydrophobic shield and a UV radiation blocker while repelling loose brake dust, dry sand, and light everyday road contaminants from sticking to the tire surface. It also restores the jet black tone that makes an old tire feel brand new.Key Features
- Advanced High-Viscosity Gel Composition: It is a thick, stable gel that holds its shape perfectly without dripping when applied to an applicator pad. This promotes even distribution across complex surfaces, raised lettering, and ribbed tire designs.
- Active UV-Blocking and Anti-Aging Stabilizers: Once applied, it creates a protective layer that serves as an anti-aging and anti-UV protector. It serves as a frontline defence against harmful ultraviolet rays and micro-environment stress.
- Ultra-Concentrated, High-Yield Formula: It is a concentrated, heavy-duty powerhouse as a small amount can go a long way. A 500mL can treat up to 50 individual tires, for both enthusiasts and professional detailers.
Benefits
- Absolute Elimination of Tire Sling on Paintwork: The gel penetrates completely deep into the pores of the tyre and the protective layer dries completely and stays locked to the sidewall. This prevents gel from getting sprayed onto your freshly detailed paint surface as the tyre rotates.
- Cross-Linked Hydrophobic Barrier Technology: After bonding properly with the tyre structure, it forms a tightly knit cross-linked hydrophobic network. This improves the water bead on the tyre surface and rolls off instantly
- Self-Cleaning, Anti-Static Surface Properties: The protective barrier alters how road debris comes in contact with the tire sidewalls. Dry dust, dirt, and light road grime cannot easily cling or bind to the tire surface while driving.
How To Use
- Thoroughly clean the tires: Scrub off all contaminants from the tire surface using a stiff-bristled tire brush. Afterwards, rinse thoroughly until the suds are completely white.
- Dispense the gel onto an applicator: Before applying, ensure the tire is 100% dry. Afterwards, take a contoured gel pad, apply a thin line or two dime-sized drops of the gel onto the pad.
- Applying the gel: Using an overlapping circular motion, press the pad firmly against the sidewall and rub it onto the tire. Cover all the surface area of the tire but do not let it get to the metal surface of the vehicle.
- Gloss level tuning: You can tune the finishing appearance to a high gloss, ultra wet showroom shine or a clean, deep satin finish. For the showroom shine, allow the gel to dry naturally on the sidewall, while for the deep satin finish, buff the sidewall with a clean dry microfiber towel after the gel mist has cured for about 10-15 minutes.

No. Because it is a dense gel that actively penetrates deep into the microscopic pores of the rubber rather than just sitting on the surface. However, it must be properly applied on a clean and dry surface to achieve this.
Applying on a wet surface will not allow the gel to work effectively as it relies on high hydrophobic silicone properties. This causes water to be trapped on the side wall and will act as a physical barrier, preventing the gel from penetrating the tire pores.
It can be toned to give you two distinctive looks during the application. For a deep, showroom shine you let it dry naturally without buffing, while for a satin or matte look, you buff after leaving to cure for about 10-15 minutes.
Yes. It is absolutely safe thanks to its advanced design that interacts with any automotive rubber sidewall. It respects the chemical components of all major tire brands, and works perfectly with anti-ozonants components of vulcanised rubbers.
While no dressing can permanently stop this effect known as blooming, the SONAX Xtreme Tire Gloss Gel (500mL) eliminates the superficial dullness. Keeping the tire sealed under a protective silicone and UV barrier.
