Patent ID: 6865772

Claim:
An applicator used to apply tire dressing to a tire, comprising: a. a rigid base having a concave lower surface and a longitudinal axis; b. an absorbent pad longitudinally aligned and attached to said concave lower surface of said rigid base, said pad including an elongated, concave lower surface that is complementary in shape with a sidewall of a tire, said pad including two opposite end surfaces and two opposite lateral edges, said lateral edges being concave and beveled thereby enabling tire dressing on said lower surface of said pad to be applied evenly to areas of a sidewall adjacent to a wheel hub and applied to a compressed shoulder area of a tire adjacent to the ground when said pad is moved in a circular pattern around a sidewall on a tire; and, c. a rigid handle attached to said rigid base opposite said pad, said rigid handle being aligned longitudinally with said longitudinal axis of said rigid base to allow the user to easily move the applicator in long broad strokes in a circular pattern around a sidewall of a tire.
