Years ago('90s) I have tried using Pledge or many other store brand(Dollar Store, Walmart brands etc.) furniture/wood polishes on tires or other rubber, vinyl, naugahyde & leather. However when I put these products on my tires or body side molding or dash surfaces, over time these products made the surfaces start to crack and, it didn't take long. Applying more would only hide the problem and would continue to deteriorate the surfaces. Nothing/no other proper product would bring the surface back to life.
Recently, I have been viewing many youtube videos on this and the reviewers are loving the furniture polishes on the tire(especially) and other surfaces. Even the youtube subscribers are commenting with positive reviews/comments, with only a few subscriber comments mirroring my experience. I find that the furniture polish actually destroys the rubber, vinyl, leather surfaces by causing excessive cracking.
Then I tried the furniture polish on my vehicles paint. And at first, they did a nice job of, if you will, quick detailing the paint. Then in a short period of time, the polish caused excessive etching, spotting into the painted surfaces. And the more I use the furniture polish on the paint, the worst the painted surfaces became, just like the tires.
Not to start arguments but, what has been your experience with using furniture polish on your vehicle's tire or painted surfaces?
