I bought a set of these Bridgestone Duravis last February (8 months) and this is my second application of 303 Aerospace UV Protestant on them. The stuff is "out of this world." Restores to a pitch black, dries with no residue and is non-greasy, and does NOT attract dust at all. Lasts a LONG TIME. Previously, last evening I scrubbed / cleaned the tires well with the Black Magic Tire Cleaner. Works great. Spray it on, let it set a minute or so, then spray again, let set--and scrub away and rinse. Wow, what a lot of oxidized rubber comes cascading off! The 303 Aerospace I applied this morning, out of direct sun. I spray it/ load it up onto a folded up small microfiber towel and work it in to all the nooks and crannies by hand, leaving the bottom of the tires unfinished, so I can do that after moving the truck a bit. After applying, be extra sure you wipe down/ buff with a dry cloth to avoid streaks. On this application I think I will actually apply a 2nd coat tomorrow morning because the stuff actually SOAKS Into the rubber! Especially now that the tires have aged a bit. At home, the truck sits in the shade all day. But oxidation is also caused by oxygen and heat. And, it gets HOT in SW Arizona.
Update: I never did need to apply a 2nd coat the next day. Fantastic stuff. Unlike other tire products I have used, I wipe my finger across the tires and there is NO black residue. Just dry treated like new rubber.
