Armor All ? What do you use?
Armor All got a bad rap due to cracked dashboards in the 80's/90's, it didn't let the material breathe. Stay away from silicone based products. I use 303 Aerospace Protectant to protect tires, it has uv protection and resists cracking or dry rotting.

Soaking tires in simple green for a few minutes has always worked for me, the active ingredient is "oil of wintergreen"
I was old school - when old school wasn't cool !
