never thought of that one! I usually have that under the kitchen sink anyway! I will give that a try next time.

I use Barkeeper's Friend, it's the gold container next to the Ajax and Comet, sells for under $5.  It's the only general cleanser that specifically recommends using to clean whitewalls.

Brillo or S.O.S pad works great.  I also don't like crawling around  on the ground. So I have my kids do it !

Westleys Bleach White is the magic bullet!  I get it at the dollar store.  I spray it on, then I use a soft long bristled broom (I'm too old to crawl around on the ground ya know!) and lightly scrub the tire, hit it with the hose and it's good as new!  BTW, the Drifter is what I call a 3 roller.  It takes 3 rolls to get the tires clean.  The stuff leaves no residue, so no slippery tires or anything.

A stiff (not too stiff) brush and soap and water helps. Be careful what you use on them, they will yellow. Auto parts stores have white wall cleaners which work reasonably well. There are a couple of products people use a lot, but I can't think of the names at the moment.

I use my pressure washer, but you really have to be careful - it will cut the tire.

Cheers.

Hello all; I put wide whitewalls on my 1500 Drifter this year, they look really good, however, they are starting to discolor; I haven't had too much luck getting that nice white look to them. Any ideas on what to use?
