Hi all,
I just purchased a bottle of the wolfgang black diamond tire gel. I've never applied anything to my tires before. I'm wondering how much product I should be using for a single tire? Want to make sure I'm not using too much and wasting product.
Thanks.

I apply a bead of tire gel along my tire applicator. Plenty enough to do one tire.

I put about a quarter size drop on the foam pad and wipe on. You can always add more if need be.

For the first tire I run a thin bead around the rectangular applicator, not on the edge but close to it, to make sure it's fully loaded. For each other tire I just run a bead down the center. I find this makes it easier because I get fewer dry spots on the rubber that I have to go over again.
However I just recently switched to Forever Black's tire product after five years of various dressings. It makes the tire a satiny black that I have now scrubbed four times with a tire brush and car soap, and it looks about 90% as black as it did when new. I got tired of reapplying tire dressing all the time and I don't really care for glossy rubber.
