Why Gloss Lock?
Months Of Durability
Holds roughly 2 to 3 months with proper prep, instead of the few days you get from a typical dressing.
A Coating, Not A Dressing
A semi-permanent tire coating built for long protection cycles, not a wipe-on shine that fades fast.
You Control The Shine
One coat gives a clean satin finish. Add a second or third coat for more gloss. You're not stuck with one look.
A Little Goes A Long Way
Up to 60 coats per bottle in our testing, about 5 full-vehicle applications at 3 coats per tire.
All Shine, No Sling
Gloss Lock dries to a cured finish, so there's no wet dressing to fling down the side of your car.
How It Works
Three steps. Months of shine.
1
Clean
Scrub the tire with Brake Bomber and a stiff tire brush until the suds run clean. Let it dry fully.
2
Apply
Pour a small amount of Gloss Lock on the foam pad and wipe on one thin, even coat.
3
Lock It In
Let each coat flash from blue to clear before adding the next. One coat for satin, more for extra gloss. Dry in about 30 minutes.

Very easy steps into applying this tire shine. I would say this product is definitely worth the price and it leaves my tires glossy and show ready.
Best tire coating ive found in my 30 years in the business.
Easy to apply. Looks amazing. I have had it on for weeks and it looks new.
Gloss Lock FAQs
How long does Gloss Lock last?
With proper prep, Gloss Lock holds for roughly 2 to 3 months, compared with a few days for a typical tire dressing. Clean, fully dry tires and thin coats give you the longest results.
How many applications does one bottle cover?
In our testing on a standard 18 inch (235/55R18) car tire, one bottle gave 60 individual coats. That's about 5 full-vehicle applications at 3 coats per tire. Larger tires or heavier coats will use more.
Which kit should I get?
Already have a wheel cleaner and a stiff tire brush? The single bottle has you covered. Starting fresh? The Wheel & Tire Kit adds Brake Bomber, a tire brush, gloves and a microfiber for proper prep, plus a free gift. The Full Arsenal is our complete wheel and tire setup and ships free.
Do I need to prep the tire first?
Yes. The tire needs to be clean and fully dry before application. That's how you get proper bonding and an even finish. Brake Bomber and a stiff tire brush handle the prep, and both come in the Wheel & Tire Kit.
What finish does it leave?
It's buildable. One coat gives a clean satin finish. Add more coats if you want more gloss.
How long until it's dry and I can drive?
Usually about 30 minutes. Warm sun speeds it up, while cold or shaded conditions can take longer. Make sure it's fully dry before you drive.
When can I wash my car after applying?
Wait at least 1 day before scrubbing or washing the tires so the coating can fully set. After that, wash as normal.
How do I add more coats?
Wait until the coat you just applied flashes from blue to clear, then apply the next thin coat. Timing depends on temperature and sunlight, so go by the color change rather than the clock. You can also add a fresh coat down the road to refresh the shine, as long as the tire is clean and fully dry first.
What if it goes on uneven or too thick?
Fix it while it's still wet by wiping the area with a clean microfiber to even it out. Thin coats are the best way to avoid this in the first place. If it has already dried, reach out to support@stealthsupplyusa.com and we'll help.
What happens if I get it on my wheel?
Wipe it off right away. Gloss Lock is a coating and will cure to your wheel if it's left on.
Can I remove Gloss Lock once it's cured?
Gloss Lock is a semi-permanent coating, so once it's cured it's built to stay. It wears down naturally over time, and you can reapply when you're ready. We don't recommend trying to strip it, since that risks damaging your tires or wheels. If you have a specific concern, email support@stealthsupplyusa.com.
How fast does it ship?
Orders ship within 1 to 2 business days and typically arrive in 3 to 5 business days. U.S. orders over $75 ship free, and The Full Arsenal ships free.
Can I return it?
Unopened, unused items can be returned within 30 days of delivery. Since Gloss Lock is a chemical product, opened bottles can't be returned. See our full Refund Policy for details.
What if my order arrives damaged or incorrect?
Email support@stealthsupplyusa.com within 7 days of delivery with photos of the product and packaging, plus your order number. Once verified, we'll sort out a replacement, store credit, or refund.
Should I wear gloves and eye protection?
Yes. Gloss Lock is a chemical, so always use proper safety gear. Gloves come in the Wheel & Tire Kit.
