km580 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 OK, like many of you I am always looking for a better tire dressing. Turtle Wax Black Tire Coat seems to be really good. Long lasting, no sling. This picture is after 2 weeks and 2 car washes. So far so good. Fat people are hard to kidnap!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCDetails Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Very nice. It is good that it doesn't sling. I've found that as long as you apply the dressing to dry tires then slinging is at a minimum. Apply anything to wet tires and you will get sling because it won't ever dry properly. The length of time it keeps the tires black is the important thing. I'd love to see how this compares to Eagle One Wet tested side by side on the same tire. I may have to try that out... I like the Turtle Wax Black products. I try not to use them very often, but every now and then I'll get a car that has the front end just peppered to death with rocks and the Black Wax kit does an awesome job of diminishing the appearance of those rock chips. It makes for a huge improvement in appearance, even if it is only temporary. It makes a mess though. lol _________________________________________ “Cleanliness becomes more important as godliness becomes more unlikely.” O C D E T A I L S .

km580 Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 I have use the Eagle One stuff before and it was gone after about a week or so. I always apply my tire dressing on a dry tire, I have still gotten sling from some dressings. I have about a half dozen dressings that I won't use on my own car so I use them for the car I drive at work. Fat people are hard to kidnap!!!

Cosa214 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Bought me one and gave it a try. This thing really make my tires wet, love it. Only thing was I have to wait for it to completely dry before I was able to wipe away the over spray on the rims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravytime Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Silicone tire dressings can suck it. No offense y'all but silicone dressings can dry out and discolor tires (brown tires anyone?) They may look wet and sassy but your tires don't appreciate them one bit. Go for water based ones. My favorite, to date anyways, is Poorboys Bold and Bright. Leaves a real nice clean matte finish witha nice amount of sheen. Dries crazy fast too (cause it's water based) No one hour thumb twidling needed. Big fan.
