Once the trailer is washed and waxed what do you put on the tires to make them look nice? I scrub my tires with Comet to get the road grime off and then they look very blah. I know that you are not suppose to use a petroleum based product, but that seems to be all that is out there.

303 Protectant is my first choice and when I run out of that I use Turtle Wax F-21. I have no third choice because that's all I will use.... IMO...

303 won't hurt your tires but shouldn't be necessary. Your tires have built in UV protection and the BEST way to keep them in top condition is to "spin" them often by towing the trailer. Anything you put on the tires can have an adverse effect on how the UV protection works.
