    I appreciate when you share as I feel your input has always spot on (please bro... share more!). Based on your and I believe Aaron NZ’s post I stocked up on MF’s and a bunch of pads before my first polish/coating. I was thinking OPT for value but F’ it. I’m gonna go with the black pearl. It’s not much more than the McKee’s.

    Question:

    Is Black Pearl a product that I can continually top or do I need to remove and reapply when it needs refreshing?

    Appreciate the luv dude. I agree with you on how tuff shine kinda looks like it’s on top of the tire and I don’t care for that myself either. Both McKee’s and OPT look better then Tuff Shine imo.
    BP doesn’t need to be topped with anything. Just wash with car soap. Like I told you before, if you wanna try BP or McKee’s, just let me know. I’ll send you 4oz of each.

    After 3 weeks I lost the fight with myself and gave in....light topper coat added this afternoon. It didn't need it, let's be clear but I gave into the little devil on my shoulder, he said "hey...its been 3 weeks since you last touched them, what's wrong with you!". Plus I'm listening to AC/DC right now, "Hell ain't a bad place to be"Optimum Tire Protection Coating (TPC)

    Re: Optimum Tire Protection Coating (TPC)

    Soooooo, I decided to try something. My front tires are different from my rears but the same make and model, 2 have rim protection and 2 don't. The 2 w/o are on the front and the edges don't look as good as the rears and yes, I understand the whole front wheels turning but I topped my coated tires with Gyeon Tire Express, "just to see" what happens.

    Has anyone done this beforeOptimum Tire Protection Coating (TPC)

    If you keep touching those tires your going to wear out the side walls before the thread.

    Re: Optimum Tire Protection Coating (TPC)

    So today we took my buddy's RX-7 to check out a carshow, fair amount of driving there and back but once we returned to his house he noticed that brown, curling up sh!t was on the tires again, ###! I mean this has to be from the tires outgasing, pushing through the coating and causing this...rightOptimum Tire Protection Coating (TPC) The tires maybe have 600 miles on them and their Continentals FWIW.

    Thoughts???

    I will say that 3D yellow degreaser at 4:1 will not remove this stuff. Freshens it up rather nice!
