Tire Cleaning
Does anybody have a tip for getting the blue off the white letters on new tires? Using normal car cleaner and it is not coming off.

Wesley's bleach white will do the trick.

Thanks guys, I was worried that I would be scrubbing the white off if I kept scrubbing with the cleaner I was using

You wont scrub the white off, its made into the tire.
You can use just a handbrush and soapy water as well works.

Simple Green and soapy water with a brush should work.

FYI, the 68 and 69 Camaros do not have exactly the same tire fit capabilities.

I always used a Brillo pad with water to get the blue goo off new tires. Works awesome!
