Any way to fix this on a tire? Quite a different problem...

I won't even speculate to as what caused the problem you're dealing with, but I will say that it is out of the norm so your normal products and processes may not do much good.

Think aggressive here... Clean as best you can using your typical process. Then get really aggressive. Something like Bleech White, household scouring cleanser (like Comet), SOS pad, coarse steel wool, or the likes. This list of potential products is not all-inclusive but I think you get the idea. Once the area is as clean as you can possibly get it then finish up by rubbing the area with a terry rag wetted with lacquer thinner as a final step before applying your tire dressing.

If that doesn't take care of the problem I can't think of anything that will.

Good Luck.
 
Is it possible he was using some sort of solvent when he was scrubbing? I spent 3 decades in the tire business. IMO you really shouldn't be adding more chemical to the tire. Use your regular cleaning process, put a couple coats of dressing on them and call it done. They should look a little better.

Looks like an old layer of tire dressing or tire coating that hasnt been completely removed, id try a different tire cleaner and keep scrubbing maybe even an sos pad to cut through the layer of dressing or coating thats built up on there.

Similar thought, maybe they're from old silicone dressing?
